I wrapped these spicy jalapeno poppers in puff pastry like a mummy. You can tame the heat by adjusting the amount of chipotle peppers.—Nick Iverson, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Test Kitchen Tips

Food styling tip: No need to find perfect peppers. Varying the sizes and shapes creates visual interest!

A measuring teaspoon is a great tool for removing seeds.

Use a food-safe plastic bag to pipe filling. Snip off a corner, transfer cheese mixture and pipe away.

Peppers (Hot)

Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
