Buttery, flaky crescent rolls filled with creamy, cheesy jalapeño goodness—perfect for gatherings, game days, or a cozy night in.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tube refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2–3 fresh jalapeños, deseeded and finely diced
  • 4–5 crispy cooked bacon strips, crumbled or finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Green onions, thinly sliced (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar, diced jalapeños, crumbled bacon, and garlic powder. Mix until well blended.
  3. Unroll the crescent dough onto a clean surface. Separate it into individual triangles following the pre-cut lines.
  4. Spoon about a tablespoon of the jalapeño popper filling onto the wide end of each triangle.
  5. Roll each triangle from the wide end to the narrow tip, enclosing the filling inside. Pinch the edges closed to prevent leakage during baking.
  6. Place the rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they’re spaced apart to allow for expansion.
  7. Optional: Brush the tops with a little melted butter for extra golden-brown goodness.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and puffed up beautifully.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with green onions for a pop of color and extra flavor.

Notes

[‘Pinch the edges of the crescent rolls securely to prevent filling from spilling.’, ‘Adjust spice level by using fewer jalapeños or leaving seeds in for extra heat.’, ‘Chilled crescent dough is easier to work with.’, ‘Use freshly shredded cheddar for better melting.’, ‘Rotate baking sheets halfway through for even browning if making a large batch.’]
