Michelle's bacon-wrapped-cream cheese-toast

Last year for Christmas I remembered my Aunt Michelle making the most delicious appetizer! Not only was I going to make it, but I made it for breakfast, all of us snacked on it throughout the day!

YUMMM! Mouth watering!

You will need:
-Baking sheet
-1LB Bacon (we use Oscar Mayer Center Cut)
-1 Brick of plain cream cheese (NO LOW FAT!!!)
-1 Loaf of white bread (we use the cheap stuff for this)
-Toothpicks

How to Prepare:
1) Preheat oven to 400
2) Cut crust off bread and cut each slice into two equal pieces (rectangle pieces no triangles)
3) Smear softened cream cheese on bread (like you would with butter), and roll your bread like a sleeping bag
4) Cut bacon strips in half and wrap around bread like a blanket to keep it snug (make sure it overlaps)
5) Stick toothpick through overlapped bacon and out the other end
6) Bake 15-20 minutes or until bacon is fully cooked

This is no diet recipe and the clean up is super easy... Why, you may ask... because all the bacon grease is soaked up into the bread and the cream cheese slowly melts leaving the bread crispy and the cream cheese warm and melty..

 I hope you enjoy!!!
