Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese
12 large jalapeno peppers
6 oz sharp yellow cheddar cheese shredded
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp Smash Seasonings Great Garlic Seasoning
1/4 tsp onion powder
12 slices thin cut bacon

Instructions

Place 8 ounces cream cheese in a large bowl and let sit out at room temperature to soften while you heat the oven and prep the peppers. Arrange rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
8 oz cream cheese
Halve 12 large jalapeno peppers lengthwise. If desired, scrape out the seeds and ribs with a small spoon and discard.
Shred 6 ounces sharp yellow cheddar cheese. Add the cheddar, salt, black pepper, onion powder and Great Garlic seasoning to the cream cheese and mix with a rubber spatula until well combined.
Divide the filling between the halved jalapenos. Use a butter knife to smooth the filling so that it is flush with the tops of the peppers.
Wrap each jalapeno half in a piece of bacon so that the ends are tucked under the pepper. Arrange the peppers cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake until the bacon is crispy and the filling is melted and lightly browned, 25-30 minutes
Let the peppers cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
