Directions:

In a large skillet or wok, cook the bacon until nice and crisp.

While the bacon is cooking, bring a pot of salted water to boil. Add the pasta and cook for 9 minutes. Drain.

Once the bacon is cooked, removed onto paper towel lined plate.

Keep 2 Tbs of the bacon grease in the pan and discard the rest. Return pan to stove and add the heavy cream and sour cream. Whisk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer.
