12 servings
- •5 ounces cream cheese, softened
- •3 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
- •salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- •6 large fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise and seeded
- •1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated crescent rolls
- •1 egg, beaten
- •1 tablespoon milk, or as needed
- •¼ cup all-purpose flour
- •24 candy eyeballs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine cream cheese and Cheddar cheese in a bowl and season filling with salt and pepper. Spoon filling into jalapeno halves.
- Roll out crescent dough on a lightly floured surface and cut into thin strips using a pizza cutter or a small knife. Wrap stuffed jalapenos with dough strips, leaving a small space unwrapped where the eyes will go.
- Combine egg and milk in a bowl. Add flour to another bowl and season with salt and pepper. Dip stuffed jalapenos first in the egg mixture, then roll in the flour. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until dough is lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from baking sheet and stick candy eyeballs in melted cheese.
