Jalapeño Poppers Wrapped in Honey Butter Crescent Dinner Rolls
I’ll be honest, I didn’t have a lot of hope for this recipe when I first saw it on the Pillsbury Website. I mean, 3 ingredients? But, they were so simple to make – and I had everything but the crescent rolls (all 2 of the other things! 😉 ) that I figured “why not make up a batch?”
I was so wrong. These are delicious. These are the kind of Jalapeño Poppers that even your friends who don’t like poppers will love. And the fact that they are so simple and cheap to make is a nice bonus.
What I said in the teaser at the top of this page is a perfect description – They are like Dinner Rolls with a Delicious Bonus!
About the Recipes
One thing you will notice immediately is that most of our recipes do not have quantities listed for the ingredients. This is by design.
Jalapeños come in many different sizes and shapes (often depending upon the time of year). Their size, the cut you choose (see below) and your own personal tastes will determine how much cream cheese, bacon or other ingredients you put into each pepper. Use your tastes and be sure to experiment a bit.
You will also notice that most directions call for cooking the poppers in an oven. This is because that is the easiest and quickest way for most of us to cook and enjoy jalapeño poppers year round. But if you want to grill, smoke or cook your poppers any other way – Almost every recipe we have will work. We will let you know if it won’t.
