Bacon Crackers
If there’s one appetizer that absolutely belongs at every party, potluck, and game day spread, it’s these bacon crackers. Salty, sweet, buttery, and impossibly crisp, they deliver big flavor with just a handful of ingredients. Club crackers topped with smoky bacon and brown sugar bake into the kind of bite-sized snack that vanishes before you can set the tray down. Easy to make, wildly addictive, and always the first thing gone.
