Sweet Pepper Poppers
 
 
Ingredients:
  • 12 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 8 ounce bag shredded Cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup crushed bacon
  • 1lb sweet peppers, seeded and halved
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 2 quarts oil
Directions:
  1. In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and bacon bits. Spoon cheese mixture into the pepper halves. Feel free to smooth with fingers.
  2. Pour milk and flour into two separate small bowls. Dip the stuffed peppers into the milk then into the flour, making sure they are well coated with each. Let each coated pepper dry for about 10 minutes.
  3. Dip the peppers in milk again and roll them through the breadcrumbs. Allow them to dry. If necessary, repeat to make sure the entire surface pepper is coated.
  4. In a medium skillet, heat oil to 365 degrees F.
  5. Deep fry the coated peppers 2 to 3 minutes each, until brown.
  6. Remove and let drain on a paper towel.
  7. Serve immediately with some of your favorite dipping sauces.
