How to Make Bacon Jalapeno Poppers in Crescent Rolls
Begin making these crescent roll jalapeño poppers by preheating your oven to 375 degrees. Then pull out a baking sheet to assemble the poppers.
Open a can of crescent rolls. Break each triangle apart and then cut each triangle in half.
Then, cut 2-3 jalapenos in half lengthwise. Take the seed out and then cut into bite-size pieces. Also, cut the block of cream cheese into small pieces.
Finally, fry up some bacon by cutting up the bacon and frying the bacon pieces in a skillet to create crumbles. You want the bacon good and crisp. Almost burn it but not quite.
To assemble the jalapeno poppers, start by putting a dollop of cream cheese in the middle of each piece of crescent roll.
Follow this with several bite-sized pieces of bacon.
Top the crescent roll, cream cheese, and bacon up with a piece of jalapeño.
The mini jalapeno poppers encroute are fantastic!

YUM!!! I LOVE poppers! I will have to give this on a try! Maybe my niece would like this at her baby shower in a couple weeks since she is becoming a "popper" herself! ๐
Didn’t know the forum rules allowed such brllaiint posts.
I have enjoyed your blog for months now, and finally had to comment. Thank you so much for posting this pattern – it helps to solve a Christmas gift challenge this year! My 4-year-old daughter has requested a doll house for Christmas that does not exist in any store, so your most excellent patterns will help me grant that wish! I have used many of your patterns for my own children and other little friends, and they have been very fun and helpful. Thank you!
Oh gosh.. I love the way you wrote this; even though I have never understood the fear of clowns, I could FEEL your fear through your words. And the way you talk about your daughters and their memories makes me want to wake my boys and see what THEY remember. But, of course, I’m not (yet) that crazy. GREAT post!
Kia ora Bob, That is a real shame, but those memories will live on. I grew up in the shadow of Lambeau Feild in Green Bay Wisconsin, and recall as a kid the wonderful games and walking to the stadium. Those cheers still ring deep within me. My son Charlie played with his Under 9 team at a tournament out in Bulls this past weekend. I was amazed at the number of boys, and girls, out there all day playing 4-5 games, maybe some of them imagining themselves at a place like Carisbrook. New Zealand rugby is in good hands.Cheers,Robb
