Baked Jalapeno Corn Poppers

Jalapeno Corn Popper

Ingredients

1/2 cup cream cheese, at room temperature

1/2 cup shredded cheese (I used a Mexican cheese blend)

1/2 cup jalapenos, chopped fine

1/2 cup corn (I used frozen fire roasted corn)

1/8 tsp salt

1/8 tsp ground black pepper

1 pack refrigerated crescent roll dough (usually comes 8 pieces to a pack)

Directions

1.  Preheat oven to 350 F.

2. Mix the cream cheese, shredded cheese, jalapenos, corn, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.

3.  Separate the crescent roll dough into 8 triangles.  Gently roll to make the triangle a little bit bigger.  Place ~2 tbsp in the center of the dough.  Fold over the sides as show in the pictures below.  Gently press the edges together (it will be a squarish shape).  Gently roll this between your palms to make it an ~3 inch long cylinder.  Make sure none of the cheese filling is visible.

4.  Place the 8 poppers on a ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake at 350 F for 12-15 mins, until golden brown.  Remove and serve hot!
