Why make Mummy Jalapeño Poppers?

These spooky poppers are a savory appetizer that are the perfect conversation starter. I tend to be pretty awkward at parties, so if I see something that is interesting, I can easily spark conversation around it with others.

If you are looking for some Halloween themed party food, these are perfect! They are such a simple appetizer to prepare. You won’t have to spend too much time putting them together.

What ingredients are needed?

You won’t need too many ingredients to make this recipe. When you are at the grocery store look for slight larger jalapeños. That way when you fill them there will be plenty of space.

Jalapeños

Softened Cream Cheese

Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Salt

Black Pepper

Garlic Powder

Crescent Dough

Candy Eyes

How to make Mummy Jalapeño Poppers?

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut jalapeños in half and remove the seeds. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, salt, garlic powder and pepper. Spoon the cream cheese mixture into the jalapeños. Overfill the jalapeños just a little bit.

Unroll the crescent roll and cut into 1/4 inch strips. Wrap the jalapeños around, crossing them over like a mummy. Do the same process with all 14 jalapeño halves. Bake in the over for about 10 to 13 minutes or until golden brown. Finally, transfer the jalapeño poppers onto a serving dish and add the candy eyes!

Just like that, you are ready to set these at the table for your Halloween party! I hope you enjoy these as much as I do! They have a nice little kick to them and are absolutely mouth watering!
