So good! But as "vote for Pedro" said, these took much longer in the oven to cook. I actually had them in the oven for about 23 minutes. I think one of the problems might be the cut of the bacon. Even though I used the same premium brand of bacon I usually buy, I noticed the slices seemed a little thicker. Plus when I cut the strips in half, they overlapped on the bread roll-ups which probably required the longer cooking time. I think the next time I make these, I'll buy the "center cut" bacon -- the slices are not as long and a little leaner. But don't be fooled -- I loved the recipe and look forward to making it again.

These were a top seller on my appetizer buffet. You can never go wrong with bacon and cream cheese. I used whole wheat sandwich bread and a took a short cut by using a garlic and herb cream cheese. These did take longer than 10 minutes (in fact, almost 20 minutes) for the bacon to get crispy, but that could have been the oven I was using. I used some fun, chunky wooden skewers to add interest to the finished appys. I will be using this recipe again.

OK lets see...My name is Diane and I'm married to a wonderful guy -- going on 20 years. We have 2 kids -- 1 daughter and 1 son a 70lb german shepard, a fat cat and a very snobby cat! I work a couple of days a week in the Loop and the rest of my time is spent sitting at the kids sporting events. I love to try new recipes. Luckily, hubby will try just about anything. The kids aren't so eager about that, but are generally very good sports about it!
