Ingredients
- 12 fresh jalapeño peppers
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough
- Olive oil (for brushing)
- Black olives (sliced, for eyes)
Instructions
Prep the Jalapeños: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes for less heat.
Make the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Fill the Jalapeños: Spoon the cheese mixture into each jalapeño half and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Prepare the Dough: Roll out the crescent roll dough and cut it into thin strips. Wrap the strips around each stuffed jalapeño to create a mummy look, leaving gaps for the “eyes.”
Bake: Brush the wrapped jalapeños with a little olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.
Add the Eyes: Once the poppers are out of the oven, place small slices of black olives in the gaps to create spooky eyes.
