Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry thawed
  • 3 jalapeño peppers thinly sliced
  • 6 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 6 strips bacon cooked and chopped
  • 8 ounces sharp cheddar grated
  • 1 egg beaten
  • Ranch dressing for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Dust lightly with flour.
  • Unroll the puff pastry sheet and roll it out to about ¼” thick.
  • Spread the softened cream cheese over half of the puff pastry sheet, then add on the jalapeno slices, half of the cheese, and the bacon.
  • Fold the other half over the top and press together to sandwich it together firmly.
  • Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice it into ½” thick strips. Twist each strip and place them spaced out on the baking sheet.
  • Brush them each with the beaten egg, then sprinkle on the remaining cheddar.
  • Place the sheet on the middle rack of the oven and bake for about 18 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through, until golden brown.
  • Serve with Ranch dressing or another dipping sauce of your choice.
