  • 8 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 2 cups of sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons bourbon
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  3. Stir in the bourbon, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Fold in the crumbled bacon, reserving a small amount for topping.
  5. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven, top with reserved bacon, and let it cool slightly before serving.
