Preparation
Step 1
Cook bacon until crisp in a skillet over medium heat. Crumble and drain, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings; set aside. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, chili powder, and salt; set aside. In a separate bowl, beat together butter and reserved drippings with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in peanut butter and sugars until creamy, about 4 minutes. Add egg and vanilla; beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce mixer setting to low; slowly beat in flour mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and bacon. Roll dough into 12 balls; arrange 2 inches apart on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Flatten balls slightly. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes, until golden. Cool cookies on sheet for about 2 minutes; transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Makes one dozen.
