Jalapeno Poppers Croissants Bites are a flavorful Mexican Party Appetizer for your next gathering! Make sure you make a lot because they’ll go fast since they are a Crowd-Pleasing Appetizer.
If you are looking for a FUN and EASY Recipe to make as an appetizer for a party this is for you! These Jalapeno Poppers Croissant Bites are AMAZING! They are seriously so good and I know that you will love them.
All you will need before you get started is a Package of Croissants, Jalapenos, Garlic Powder, Cream Cheese, and Cheddar Cheese. That’s only 5 ingredients! See I told you this would be easy :)
Start with soft cream cheese. You may need to place it in the microwave for a few seconds. Mix in the Cheddar Cheese and Garlic Powder until everything is well mixed. This will be your filling for your Jalapenos.
Next slice and seed your Jalapenos. Remember the oil from the Jalapeno can burn your skin so I recommend using gloves. The seeds are the hot part of a Jalapeno so make sure you remove those.
Once you have your Jalapenos sliced and seeded you can fill them with the cream cheese mixture.
Take the roll of Croissants and slice each Croissant in half, this will turn a package of 8 into about 16 Croissant Wrappers. Wrap each filled Jalapeno with a Croissant and place on a greased baking sheet.
Bake at 375 Degrees for around 12 Minutes! Serve while warm.

I had these at a party with a cocktail sausage in each and they were wonderful.
I agree with Janice. I’m going to add cumin, fresh garlic, minced cilantro and ground black pepper to provide more flavor. It is a great idea because they are 2 bite sized!
I make something similar using different cheeses AND I add the seeds back into the filling. My boys didn’t like them when I left the seeds out, they were too bland, so in they go. They are much better with a little kick to them!
