These spicy and cheesy jalapeno popper twists are perfect for game day snacking, combining creamy filling with a flaky puff pastry crust.

Ingredients

Dough

  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry (Ensure it’s fully thawed.)

Filling

  • 8 oz Cream Cheese (Can substitute with Neufchâtel.)
  • 1 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese (Monterey Jack is a great mild alternative.)
  • 0.5 cup Sliced Jalapenos (Use fresh for more heat or pickled for milder.)
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder (Fresh garlic can be used as a substitute.)
  • 1 large Egg (Use non-dairy milk for a vegan version.)
  • 0.5 cup Ranch Dressing (Complements the flavors wonderfully.)
  • 0.25 cup Sriracha Mayo (Perfect for an extra kick of heat.)
  • 0.25 cup Honey Mustard (Provides a sweet and tangy contrast.)

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out puff pastry and cut into strips.
  • Mix cream cheese, cheddar, jalapenos, garlic powder, and ranch dressing to make the filling.
  • Spread filling on pastry strips, then roll into twists and place on baking sheet.
  • Brush with beaten egg and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
  • Mix sriracha mayo and honey mustard for dipping sauce. Serve warm.

Notes

For extra heat, add more jalapenos or a dash of hot sauce.
