Caution: Handle jalapenos with care as they can be spicy. Ensure proper ventilation while cooking. Be cautious when handling hot bacon.

1

Preheat the Oven

To start, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure that your bacon is evenly cooked and crispy.

2

Prepare the Jalapenos

Take 8 fresh jalapenos and slice them lengthwise. Carefully remove the seeds and membranes using a small spoon or knife. This step will help reduce the spiciness of the jalapenos.

3

Stuff with Cream Cheese

Fill each jalapeno half with a generous dollop of cream cheese. The creaminess of the cheese will complement the heat of the jalapeno and bacon.

4

Wrap with Bacon

Take a slice of bacon and wrap it around each jalapeno half. Use toothpicks to secure the bacon in place, ensuring it doesn't unravel during cooking. You can cut the bacon slices in half if needed.

5

Bake in the Oven

Place the bacon-wrapped jalapenos on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake them in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the bacon turns crispy and golden brown.

6

Serve and Enjoy

Carefully remove the toothpicks from the jalapenos and transfer them to a serving platter. Serve them warm and watch as they disappear within seconds! These delicious bites are perfect for parties or as a spicy appetizer.
