House-Autry Mills Breaded Creamy Bacon Roll-ups

This recipe took home first place in the House-Autry Mills cooking contest at the NC State Fair in 2011.  Domino Ireland used bacon in the filling and the crust.  You can fix these ahead of time and then just fry them up as your guests arrive. This is a great appetizer!
