Halloween Jalapeño Popper Mummies

Prep time: 15 MinCook time: 10 MinTotal time: 25 Min

Ingredients

• 10 jalapeño peppers, sliced in half lengthwise and pith/ seeds removed (use rubber gloves so your hands don't burn from the jalapeño). Leave the stem if you can on some or all of the halves.
• 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
• 8 ounces jack cheese, shredded
• 1 scallion (green onion), finely chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 package of refrigerated crescent rolls
• 2 eggs, beaten
• candy eyeballs (can be purchased at any craft store or on Amazon)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400° F. In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, jack cheese, scallion, and salt until well blended.
2. Roll out the crescent rolls and separate them into 4 rectangles (not triangles) with a perforation in the middle of each. Press your fingers into the perforations to seal them. Using a pizza cutter, cut each rectangle into 10 long pieces lengthwise.
3. Fill each jalepeño half with the cheese mixture. Wrap each jalapeño half with the dough, leaving a space for the eyes. Use two pieces of dough if necessary. Brush with egg mixture and place on baking sheet.
4. Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and press the eyes into the cheese where the opening is. Serve immediately.
