• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tsp. quick-rise yeast
• 1 tsp. salt
• 2/3 cup warm water
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 tsp. crushed garlic
• 10 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled)
• 2 cups Farmers Cheddar Cheese, shredded

1. Reserve 1/2 cup flour. In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, un-dissolved yeast and salt.
2. Heat water and 2 tbsp. butter until very warm. (120°F/50°C). Add liquid to dry ingredients and stir vigorously. Work in remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes.
3. Roll dough onto a lightly greased 15" x 10" x 3/4" jelly roll pan. Cover and let rise for another 15 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, prepare bacon. Melt remaining 2 tbsp. butter and stir in crushed garlic. Spread evenly over dough. Top with Farmers Cheddar Cheese, shredded and sprinkle with crumbled bacon. Bake in preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes or until done. Serve warm, cut into squares.
