Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
16 small jalapeñoes
4 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup sour cream
1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
32 oz prepared pizza dough
¼ cup baking soda
1 large egg yolk, beaten
coarse sea salt, for topping
½ cup crema
1 avocado, pitted and peeled
½ cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons fresh mint leaf
1 lime, zested
1 lime, juiced
½ teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and another with foil, then grease with nonstick spray.
  • Trim the tops and bottom tips from the jalapeños. Cut the jalapeños in half crosswise and remove the seeds and ribs, taking care not to break the jalapeños.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, and cheddar cheese with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until well combined. Transfer the cheese mixture to a piping bag or zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
  • Pipe the cheese mixture into each jalapeño half to fill completely.
  • Divide the pizza dough into 32 1-ounce portions and roll into balls. Gently press each piece of dough into a small, flat circle. Place a stuffed jalapeño half in the center, then gather the dough around the jalapeño and roll into a ball, sealing completely. Place on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the baking soda to the boiling water.
  • Working in batches, boil the dough balls, until the dough begins to swell, about 20-30 seconds. Remove from the water and place on the foil-lined baking sheet, arranging in 2 concentric circles with a space in the middle.
  • Brush the dough balls with the beaten egg yolk and sprinkle with coarse salt.
  • Bake the poppers for about 25 minutes, until the dough is cooked through and tops are deep golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, make the creamy cilantro lime dip: Add the crema, avocado, cilantro, mint, lime zest and juice, and salt to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl that will fit into the center of the popper ring.
  • Place the dip in the center of the ring, then serve.
  • Enjoy!
