Brown Sugar Bacon-Wrapped Cream Cheese Stuffed Jalapeños
Prep Time30 Minutes
Servings12
0Ingredients
6 jalapeños, halved lengthwise and deseeded
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
6 slices of bacon, uncooked and cut in half
â…“ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon chili powder
Directions
- Heat grill or grill pan to medium/medium-high. If baking, heat broiler to high.
- Cut jalapeños lengthwise and remove white part and seeds.
- Spread approximately 1-2 tablespoons of cream cheese inside each jalapeño half. This will depend on how big your jalapeños are.
- Wrap each jalapeño half with half a slice of bacon.
- Combine brown sugar and chili powder in a shallow bowl.
- Roll each bacon wrapped jalapeno in the brown sugar mixture, pressing it on so it will stick, then secure bacon with a toothpick. (I did that at this point because doing it sooner would have made it difficult to roll in the brown sugar.)
- Place each jalapeño on grill or grill pan for 12-15 minutes, until bacon is cooked through.
- If baking, broil for 10-20 minutes. Watch them closely, because all ovens heats differently. Enjoy!
