Bacon and Goat Cheese Pops
These Bacon and Goat Cheese Pops are easy finger foods that make great appetizers for your holiday parties.

You might have noticed that I have a bit of a thing for bacon. There were those sweet bacon-y treats like the bacon, bourbon and peanut butter cookies and the bacon caramel popcorn. And then there was bacon in sandwiches and soups and soups. Oh and remember that last post about beer ice cream? Ya, that might have been was made with a bacon maple ale.
I think I might have a bit of a bacon problem.
