Chipotle Bacon Jalapeno Wontons

Name: Chipotle Bacon Jalapeno Wontons
Cook time: 6 min
Yield: 60 wontons
Cuisine: United Kingdom
Ingredients: vegetable oil for frying; 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened; ½ pound cooked bacon, crumbled; 8 jalapeno peppers, diced, or more to taste; ¼ cup shredded processed cheese (such as Velveeta®); 4 green onions, chopped; 3 tablespoons hot sauce (such as Tabasco® Chipotle Pepper Sauce); 1 egg; 2 tablespoons water; 1 (16 ounce) package wonton wrappers

These wontons make a good snack or an appetizer. If you can’t handle a regular jalapeno popper but still like jalapenos this is a good substitute. You can make them as spicy as you want. You can even make them ahead of time and stick them in the freezer!
