Time 3h50m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 Tbsp. PHILADELPHIA Spicy Jalapeño Cream Cheese Spread
1 cup KRAFT Shredded Jalapeño Cheese
1 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh jalapeño peppers
3/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1 pkg. (1 oz.) TACO BELL® Taco Seasoning Mix
1/3 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro, divided
1 lb. lean ground beef
3 Tbsp. TACO BELL® Thick & Chunky Salsa
3 Tbsp. BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Sour Cream

Steps:

  • Mix cream cheese spread, shredded cheese and peppers until blended. Roll cream cheese mixture into 12 balls, using about 1 Tbsp. cream cheese mixture for each ball. Place in parchment-lined pan. Freeze 2 to 3 hours or until firm.
  • Heat oven to 350°F. Combine bread crumbs, taco seasoning mix and milk in medium bowl; let stand 5 min. or until bread crumbs are softened. Add egg and 1/4 cup cilantro; mix well. Add meat; mix just until blended.
  • Roll meat mixture into 12 (1-3/4-inch) balls. Flatten slightly, then top each with 1 frozen cheese ball. Wrap meat mixture around cheese balls to completely enclose each cheese ball. Reroll into round balls, if necessary. Place on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Bake 30 min. or until done (165°F).
  • Top with salsa, sour cream and remaining cilantro.
