Bitch Bacon Bread Sticks

By darleneandjoel

From the Sweet Potato Queens cookbook

Ingredients

• very thinly sliced bacon
• dark brown sugar
• chili powder
• 1 box of grissini, long thin bread sticks

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350, and set the bacon on the counter to let it soften up for about 10 minutes.

Mix the sugar and chili powder in a long skinny baking dish.

Very carefully wrap the bacon around the breadsticks in a delightful spiral of fat.

Roll the bacon-y bread stick in the sugar and chili mixture, then set them, one by one on the rack of a broiler pan about 1/2 inch apart and bake for about 20 minutes. They are great at room temperature.
