- 12 fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese
- 12 slices bacon, cut in half
- Franks RedHot Original sauce to taste (optional)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Whip together cream cheese and Franks hot sauce. You may leave out the hot sauce if you want, but it give it such a yummy flavor :)
- Stuff each jalapeno half with whipped cream cheese mixture.
- Wrap a half slice of bacon around each stuffed jalapeno half and secure with a tooth pick. Arrange wrapped jalapeno halves in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven 45 minutes, or until bacon is evenly browned and crisp.
These little babies turned out so good for our Super Bowl party!! I made some with the hot sauce and some with plain cream cheese. Both turned out good, but I personally liked the ones with a bit of Franks in them the most. I wish I had a picture of them, but I forgot to bring my camera.
I ended up using more cream cheese then expected because the jalapenos I bought were huge!!! So if you have large peppers make sure to have extra cream cheese on hand.
