Step 1

Separate the yolk from as many egg whites as you are going to be making clouds. This is for 1 per person. Be sure to keep yolks separate.

Step 2

In a chilled bowl, using an electric mixer or whisk, beat the 2 egg whites until stiff peaks form. With a rubber spatula, fold in the crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, chives, salt and pepper.

Step 3

Spoon the whites into even piles on a parchment lined baking sheet and create a well in the center of each pile with the back of the spoon. Bake at 450°F for 3 minutes.

Step 4

Remove from oven and place a yolk in each well, bake for another 3 minutes at 450°F and serve.
