Hot Pepper Jelly image

This is a delicious jelly to put out with cream cheese and crackers. Everyone loves it. It's addictive. You can control the heat in it by controling the peppers. If you don't like too much spice, it still makes a great jelly because there is flavor from the sweet green peppers. I like it hot, but not too hot. The recipe is about where I like it. When you put the peppers in the food processor, I process them to a medium to fine size because you will be bringing it all to a boil and letting it stand for a while and the peppers will shrink some (you do not want large chunks though).
