Bacon Wrapped Jalapeños

These are a favorite to all my family and friends! Even my 3 year old loves to eat them.

Ingredients:
1 8oz package of cream cheese - softened
1lb good sized jalapeños
1lb bacon - not thick cut.
1.2-2c shredded cheese - I usually use cheddar. Pepperjack is pretty good too!

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a pan with foil and spray with cooking spray. I then place a cooling rack on top but you don't have to use a cooling rack.

Steps:
1. Take all your jalapeños and cut them in half length wide.
2. PUT ON GLOVES
3. Use a spoon to clear out all the guts from the jalapeños. Remove gloves.
4. Take your softened cream cheese and place it in a bowl. Add the shredded cheese and mix well.
5. Using a spoon or your hands fill the hole left in each half a jalapeño.
6. Take your lb of NOT THICK bacon and cut in half.
7. Wrap one half piece of bacon around each piece of jalapeño. You can use a whole slice of bacon if your jalapenos are large.
8. Place wrapped jalapeños on the pan or cooling rack.
9. Bake at 425 for around 30-45 minutes or until the bacon is cooked through.

I know they look and smell delicious but allow to cool before enjoying them!

I bring these as appetizers to all kinds of functions and serve them at all my parties! What is your favorite party snack?
