I made these as pinwheels, but it would also be an AMAZING dip served with Tostitos or Fritos!
Ingredients:
1 block of cream cheese
1 bag of shredded cheddar cheese (I had a block and used about half of it)
4 tablespoons of sliced jalapenos (you can use diced or whole ones if you dice them by hand)
4 strips of bacon, fried and crumbled
Tortilla shells (if you want to make pinwheels and not dip)
I used whole wheat tortillas, but you can use any kind or any size for these.
Instructions:
sit the cream cheese out to get to room temperature.
I used my KitchenAid to mix this up, but you can use a large bowl if you don't have one.
Combine all ingredients into bowl and mix until blended well.
Take about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and spread evenly over a tortilla shell.
starting at one edge, roll the tortilla in a tight wrap and place on a plate.
use all the mixture until you have filled your tortillas. (should make 4-6)
don't overfill the tortillas, they should just have a thin layer of mixture.
Roll the tortillas in saran wrap and put in the fridge for a few hours until very cold.
When they are cold, unwrap the saran wrap and use a very sharp knife to slice the tortillas into 1/2 inch sections. Discard the end pieces from each wrap. Place flat on a plate and serve. These would be amazing served with a bowl of sour cream or salsa.
If you have a hard time cutting these, or they start getting smashed instead of cutting easily, put them back in the fridge. When I started cutting mine, after the 2nd one, they started getting hard to cut and messy, so I got them cold again and cut again. Also use a VERY sharp knife! (you can see the ones in the pic that had gotten too warm to cut haha)
If you want to make this a dip, I would combine all ingredients, place in a shallow dish, cover with a little more cheese, and bake until its nice and melty! serve with chips!
