Bacon Wrapped Little Smokie Jalapeno Poppers

Bacon Wrapped Little Smokie Jalapeno Poppers combine smoky little smokies with creamy cheese filling inside jalapeño halves, all wrapped in crispy baked bacon. The jalapeños deliver moderate heat balanced by the cheese mixture with cheddar and cream cheese, enhanced by chipotle powder's smoky spice. Baking melds flavors and crisps the bacon, making these poppers ideal for appetizers or party snacks that offer spicy, creamy, and savory layers.

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Wash and cut the jalapenos in half. Scoop out seeds and pith if you desire a less spicy popper.

  4. Fill each jalapeno half with about 1 to 2 teaspoons of the cheese mixture.
  5. Place 1 smokie in each jalapeno.
  6. Wrap jalapeno with a half slice of bacon.
