Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 slices thick-cut bacon
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 pieces toothpicks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped chives, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Cut each slice of bacon in half, creating 24 pieces.
Spoon roughly a tablespoon of the cheese mixture onto one end of each bacon strip, then roll the bacon up around the filling.
Secure each rolled piece with a toothpick to prevent unraveling during baking.
Place the bacon bites onto the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese is bubbling.
Once cooked, carefully remove the toothpicks and serve warm as a delicious appetizer or snack.
