Bacon Wrapped Jalapenos

Yes, another Pioneer Woman recipe. What can i say, she and i have such great taste.

Bacon Wrapped Jalapenos

Fresh jalapenos 2-3 inches in size
cream cheese - softened
bacon, sliced in half

Cut jalapenos in half. length-wise. With a spoon, remove the seeds and white membrane (leave a little if you want a little heat to them). Smear softened cream cheese into each jalapeno half. Wrap jalapeno with bacon piece. Secure by sticking a toothpick through the middle (you may freeze at this point).

Bake on a pan with a rack in a 375 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. Don't cook them so long that the bacon starts to shrink and squeeze the jalapenos. If the bacon isn't browned after 20 minutes, turn on the broiler to finish them off.
