I’m always on the lookout for new and different cookie ideas to make and I was really intrigued by this combination of bacon and chocolate cookies that I found at Tidy Mom, of course the addition of bourbon didn’t hurt either.

Ooey Gooey Butterscotch Chocolate Chip Bars
I almost named these 7 layer blondies because they are like a cross between my 7 layer bars and a blondie.
