Steps:

• Cut cheese slices into matchstick sized pieces that are 1/4 inch by 3 inches in length. Partially cook bacon strips so the fat is rendered and still limp enough to wrap around shrimp. Place on paper towel to absorb bacon fat. Cut each slice of bacon in half. Clean and devein shrimp leaving tail on. Place jalapenos under broiler and blacken all sides. Place blackened jalapenos in paper bag and leave sealed for 10 minutes. Peel glossy skin layer from each pepper. Slice each pepper in half and remove seeds. Slice each half into 4 matchstick sized pieces. Preheat over to 425 To assemble shrimp, place a jalapeno and cheese matchstick into crevice of shrimp where vein was removed and then wrap the 1/2 slice of bacon around the shrimp to hold in the cheese and jalapeno. Line a baking pan with foil and coat with a thin layer of butter so the shrimp bundles will not stick. Place shrimp bundles on the foil leaving 1/2 inch space between each. Place in oven 15-20 minutes or until bacon is crisp and shrimp is pink and somewhat firm to the touch. To make sauce, combine Kahlua, syrup, and butter in small sauce pan.
