Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 strips bacon
1 onion, chopped
8 jalapeñoes, chopped and seeded
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1 ½ cups sharp cheddar cheese, extra for topping
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 sheet puff pastry, room temperature
flour, for rolling dough

Steps:

  • In a pan, cook bacon until crisp, then chop into small pieces.
  • Discard excess fat (reserve approximately 2 tablespoons).
  • In the same pan, sauté the onions in the reserved fat until they start to become translucent.
  • Add the jalapeños. Cook until the onions start to caramelize and remove from heat.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, bacon, cheddar, pepper, garlic powder, and jalapeño mixture. Stir until thoroughly incorporated.
  • On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the puff pastry until the surface is smooth and even.
  • Spread the japapeño mixture on the pastry sheet, stopping 1 inch (2 ½ cm) from the top of the dough.
  • Starting at the bottom, tightly roll upwards and pinch the top edge to seal into a log shape.
  • Cut the roll every 1½ inches (3 ¾ cm). Place the pieces face-up, 2 inches (5 cm) apart on the baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops of the pastries with cheddar.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sides of the pastries are a light golden color.
  • Enjoy!
