Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients:
  • 1 bag Nacho Cheese Doritos or preferred flavor
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6 strips bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 2 green onions finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Sour cream or ranch optional, for dipping

Method
 

Prepare the Filling:
  1. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, shredded cheddar, bacon, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Mix until well combined and let rest for 5 minutes.
Stuff the Doritos:
  1. Take a Dorito chip and carefully break open a corner.
  2. Using a small spoon or piping bag, fill the chip with the cheese mixture.
  3. Gently press to close and repeat with remaining Doritos.
Bake or Air Fry for Extra Crispiness:
  1. Oven Method: Preheat to 375°F (190°C). Place stuffed Doritos on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes.
  2. Air Fryer Method: Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Air-fry for 3-5 minutes until crispy.
Serve & Enjoy:
  1. Let cool slightly before serving.
  2. Pair with sour cream, ranch dressing, or guacamole for dipping.

Notes

  • Use thicker Doritos flavors like Nacho Cheese or Cool Ranch for better structure.
  • Avoid overstuffing to prevent cracking.
  • Refrigerate the filling for 10 minutes before stuffing for easier handling.
  • Store leftover filling in the fridge for up to 2 days.
