FreeFood Friday: Jalapeno poppers!

Wow it's been a long time since I posted in here :embarrassed:  I've been super busy in the garden. Maybe someday I'll post an update :P  Anyway, today I thought I'd share a new-found favorite. The boys LOVE these b/c they involve spiciness and cheese. What's not to love? I add a teensy bit more garlic than the recipe says and they are GOOD. Better than store-bought poppers Oh twu wuv! 
For this recipe you will need:

• 4 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 jalapeno, diced. (You can also remove the seeds inside if you would like to cut down on the heat a bit)
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 12 wonton wrappers
• Little bowl of water for sealing wonton wrappers
• Canola oil for frying

1. Preheat Canola oil in 2 qt pot. You will want about an inch of oil in the pot.
2. Mix cream cheese, jalapeno, garlic powder, white pepper and salt in a small bowl
3. Lay wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Place 1/2 teaspoon of filling into the center of the wonton. Use your finger to wet the sides of the wrapper. Then carefully pull opposite sides together to make a pointed top. Be sure to seal all sides, you don’t want any of the cream cheese coming out while you are frying them.
4. Once the oil is hot enough, add the wontons carefully. Fry until golden brown.
5. Serve with plum sauce (you can find this in the Asian food aisle of your local grocery store).
Enjoy!

Pizza Angel chef notes:
I didn't serve them with plum sauce. Somehow I can see that NOT going over too well around here :P  But I did have them with taco tuesday twice in a row :)
I could also see this working with adding some shredded cheddar or something. yum yum!
