Mummy Jalapeño Poppers

4 slices bacon, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
6 ounces plus 1 heaping tablespoon cream cheese, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups finely shredded Cheddar Jack cheese
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, finely grated
Kosher salt
10 medium to large jalapeños (each 3 to 4 inches long), halved lengthwise with the stem intact, seeded with a small spoon
One 8-ounce tube refrigerated crescent rolls
1 large egg, beaten

  • Method & Directions

    Place the bacon in a medium skillet and set over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Mix the cooked bacon with the 6 ounces cream cheese, the Cheddar Jack, scallions, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl until well combined.
  3. Fill

    Fill each jalapeño half with the cream cheese mixture, leveling the surface with the back of a spoon or a small offset spatula so it’s flush with the edges of the jalapeño.
  4. Cut

    Unroll the crescent rolls onto a cutting board. Separate into 4 rectangles at the perforations. Pinch together the diagonal perforations on each rectangle to seal the holes. Cut each rectangle lengthwise into 10 strips. Wrap each jalapeño half with 2 of the strips to resemble mummy bandages.
  5. Bake

    Arrange the wrapped jalapeños on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops of the strips with the beaten egg. Bake until golden brown and the filling is hot, 13 to 18 minutes.
  6. Design

    Meanwhile, transfer the remaining heaping tablespoon cream cheese to a small resealable plastic bag and snip one of the corners. Slice off thin cheeks from all around the outside of each olive and lay the pieces flat. Punch out 40 tiny rounds using a small round piping tip (about 3/16 inch) – these will be the pupils of the eyes.
  7. Serve

    Let the mummy poppers cool slightly for a few minutes. Pipe 2 small mounds of cream cheese on the head (wider end) of each mummy and press an olive “pupil” onto each mound. Serve right away.
