These decadent poppers are a party pleasing favorite!
[ingredients]
- In a deep-fryer or heavy-bottomed stock pot add enough oil to come 1/3 of the way up the sides of the pan. Heat oil to 370ºF over medium heat.
- Cut jalapeños in half, remove ribs and seeds.
- Combine cream cheese with the peanut butter and then spoon the mixture into each jalapeño half, mounding it slightly. Place in freezer to harden.
- In a small bowl, combine panko and Molly’s Idahoan Blend.
- Once the filling is firm, dip each stuffed jalapeño into the egg and then roll in the panko mixture, pressing to coat.
- Working in batches, if necessary, gently place jalapeños in preheated oil and fry until golden brown, 1 – 2 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on a paper-towel lined plate. Cool slightly before serving, as the filling is extremely hot.
- Serve with The Jelly Lady’s Black Cap Jelly and Enjoy!
