    I love bacon. I cook greens in the drippings, but I never thought of using bacon fat for baking.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    A friend of mine owns a bakery and made chocolate bacon coffee cupcakes last Fall. She included a bit of bacon drippings in the batter, plus bacon pieces. They were TO DIE FOR!

    I wish I did this. How do you keep the drippings prepared? I have never known what to do. We only cook bacon once every few months in my house but I cook greens every week. Can I store drippings or is that not safe?

    Keep the drippings in a jar in the fridge.
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    And then get a big dollop out and use like any other cooking fat.

    Also good on eggs. That's what I'm having for breakfast.

    I don't eat pork, but when I make chicken stock, I recover the fat and store it in the freezer. Then I'll use it for cooking fat when I want that chicken flavor.

    Those cookies sound SO GOOD, GLC. I'd be interested to know what is in 'em in place of the "grain"!
