Ingredients
  

For the filling:

  • 8 oz Cream Cheese softened
  • ¼ cup Sour Cream
  • ½ cup Dill Pickles diced
  • 1 cup Colby Jack Cheese shredded
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tbsp Pickle Juice
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Dill chopped

For the bacon:

  • 12 strips Bacon cut in half lengthwise

Optional Garnish:

  • Additional chopped dill
  • Hamburger pickle chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray and set it aside.
  • In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sour cream until fluffy. Stir in diced dill pickles, shredded Colby Jack cheese, garlic powder, pickle juice, and fresh dill until well combined. Set aside.
  • Cut 12 strips of bacon in half lengthwise to create 24 smaller strips. Lay them flat on a clean surface.
  • Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the filling onto each bacon strip and roll it up tightly. Repeat with all 24 pieces.
  • Place the bacon roll-ups upright in the greased muffin tin. Secure with toothpicks if needed. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the bacon is golden brown and crispy.
