Did you know that November 21st is National Gingerbread Cookies Day?! It’s a pretty exciting day for cookie lovers. And we’re making it a pretty exciting day for bacon lovers, too! We added some maple bacon flavor to these crispy gingerbread cookies then decorated them with Maple Bacon Royal Icing to bring a little bacon cheer to your holiday season.

Hard gingerbread cookies were traditionally cut into shapes, often the gingerbread man shape we still see today, and then decorated with candies and icing. They were typically found at street fairs or carnivals and enjoyed by dunking them in port wine to moisten the cookies. Today the preferred dunking beverage of choice is a spiced latte or creamy hot cocoa, but we’re thinkin’ that port wine was probably the better choice!
