  Fry bacon until very crisp.  Drain on paper towels. Slice cheese. Fill

  *If table cream is not available, use 1/2 cup whipping cream and 1/2
  cup half & half.
  
  Variation: Fill shell with tiny cubes of ham and Gruyére cheese.
  Variation: Substitute slices of well aged Cheddar or domestic Munster
  for Gruyére.
