Ingredients




jalapenos
cheese
puff pastry
cream cheese

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking pan with parchment paper. 2 Lay out the puff pastry sheet flat. Cut it into thirds vertically and then horizontally so you have 9 equal squares. 3 In a medium mixing bowl, add in the jalapenos, bacon, pepper jack and cheddar cheese, and cream cheese, Wood it with a wooden spoon until the cream cheese is thoroughly incorporated. You want the cream cheese to act as a binder for the other cheeses, jalapenos, and bacon. 4 Add the egg into a small bowl with 2 tsp. water. Whisk with a fork to combine. 5 Brush the egg wash on top of the puff pastry squares. 6 Add 1 tablespoon of the jalapeno popper filling to the center of the puff pastry. I rolled mine into a ball and placed it into the center of the pastry. 7 Place into the oven and bake for 18 minutes until the edges are golden brown. 8 Remove from the oven and eat immediately.
