Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers

1. Slice the jalapenos in half and use a spoon to hull out the middle pith and seeds. The seeds are where the bulk of the heat in the pepper is. If you like them hot, leave some of the seeds inside.
2. Into the bowl of a food processor, add cream cheese, shredded cheese, Worcestershire sauce, chipotle powder. Pulse until the mixture is well blended.
3. Fill each jalapeno half with the cheese blend.
4. Wrap each stuffed jalapeño half with 1 slice of bacon so that the pepper is completely covered.
5. Refrigerate the poppers for about 20 minutes to firm up the cheese stuffing and allow the flavors to meld together.
