Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 8 Large Jalapeños seeds removed
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese softened
  • 1 ½ cups Cheese grated (Three Alarm Cheese or your favorite blend)
  • ¼ cup Green Onions sliced
  • ⅛ cup Cilantro chopped
  • 8 slices Bacon

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Jalapeños : Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. Be careful if you’re sensitive to spice – wearing gloves can help!
  2. Make the Filling : In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, grated cheese, green onions, and chopped cilantro. Mix until well combined. Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each jalapeño half generously with the cheese mixture.
  3. Wrap with Bacon : Cut each slice of bacon in half. Wrap one piece of bacon around each stuffed jalapeño half, securing the ends with a toothpick if needed.
  4. Bake : Place the bacon-wrapped jalapeños on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese filling is bubbly.
  5. Serve : Remove the poppers from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm as a spicy, cheesy, and smoky appetizer your guests will love!
