Ingredients
- 12 Jalapeno Peppers
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese shredded
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 8 ounces Canned Crescent Rolls
- 24 Candy Eyes Optional
Instructions
- Prep the Jalapeños. Start by slicing each jalapeño in half lengthwise and removing the seeds and membranes. This will create space for the filling and reduce the spice level.
- Make the Filling. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Fill the Jalapeños. Spoon the cheese mixture into each jalapeño half, making sure to fill them generously.
- Wrap the Jalapeños. Open the crescent roll dough and cut it into thin strips. Wrap each jalapeño half with the dough strips, leaving some gaps to create the mummy effect. Don’t forget to leave space for the eyes!
- Bake. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Place the wrapped jalapeños on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and crispy.
- Add Eyes. Once out of the oven, let the poppers cool for a few minutes before adding candy eyes to complete the mummy look. Press the eyes gently into the crescent dough so they stick.
- Serve. Arrange your Mummy Jalapeño Poppers on a platter and serve them warm with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own!
