Step: 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Grease a baking sheet.

Step: 3

Place bacon in a large, deep skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step: 4

When bacon is cool, crumble and set aside in a bowl.

Step: 5

Place asparagus spears into a large skillet and pour in about 1 inch of water. Place over medium heat, cover the skillet, and simmer asparagus until bright green and slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Remove asparagus and set aside.

Step: 6

Place cream cheese and chives into the bowl with bacon and stir to evenly combine.

Step: 7

Roll each bread slice with a rolling pin on a work surface until the slices are thin and flat.

Step: 8

Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over each slice of bread.

Step: 9

Center 2 asparagus spears on a bread slice, and roll the slice around the asparagus into a tidy and compact cylinder. Place seam side down onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Step: 10

Brush each roll with melted butter and sprinkle each with about 1 1/2 teaspoon Parmesan cheese.

Step: 11

Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden brown and hot, 10 to 12 minutes.
