Bacon Burger with Cookie Butter and Sriracha

Just keep an open mind here.
Bacon Burger with Cookie Butter and SrirachaI know this may seem unconventional. Or weird.

But it works.

When I was recently asked by Sprouts  to create a recipe using their Cookie Butter, my initial idea was to make something sweet. However, if you know me at all you know I’ll go to great lengths to keep it savory. I just can’t help myself. If you haven’t had their Cookie Butter, it’s kinda like peanut butter, but instead of peanuts it’s made with spiced cookies (think gingerbread, or otherwise known as Speculoos) made into a creamy spread.  

Bacon BurgerYes, the stuff is sweet. BUT when you marry it with salty bacon and spicy Sriracha on a burger, it’s a beautiful sweet/savory combo. I used their 85% Extra Lean Ground Chuck and fresh baby greens.

I was honestly blown away when I tasted this pretty thing.

I like the sting.
