Bacon Wrapped Jalapeño Thingies

10 whole fresh Jalapenos, 2-3 inches in size
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 pound bacon, sliced into thirds

Cut jalapenos in half, length-wise. With a spoon, remove the seeds and white membrane. Smear softened cream cheese into each jalapeno half. Wrap jalapeno with bacon (1/3 slice). Secure by sticking toothpick through the middle. 

Bake on a pan with a rack in a 375-degree oven for 20-25 minutes. If, after 20 minutes, the bacon doesn’t look brown enough, just turn on the broiler for a couple of minutes to finish it off. These are best when the jalapeno isn't mushy.

Serve immediately, or they’re also great at room temperature.
