Ingredients
5 fresh jalapeños
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup cheese (Parmesan, cheddar, or pepper jack)
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp garlic powder
1 tube crescent roll sheet
Candy eyes (or ketchup/olives for eyes)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove seeds.
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Spoon filling into each jalapeño half, slightly overfilling.
Cut crescent roll sheet into ½-inch strips. Wrap each jalapeño half to resemble a mummy, leaving small gaps for eyes.
Place on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown (about 10 minutes).
Remove from oven, add candy eyes (or ketchup/olive eyes). Serve hot.
Notes
Best served warm and fresh from the oven.
Try mixing cheeses for more flavor.
Use gloves when handling jalapeños to avoid irritation.
Candy eyes are fun for kids, but olives or dots of ketchup make a great savory alternative.
