Author: Tag Sale Tastes
Ingredients
  • 6 fresh jalapenos*
  • 4 dried apricots
  • 2 ounces brie*
  • 6 strips duck bacon
  • *Remember to exercise care when handling jalapenos, and avoid rubbing your eyes after handling them.
  • *Freezing the brie briefly makes it easier to slice.
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Cut the stem end off of the jalapenos and discard. Slice the jalapenos in half lengthwise, and scoop out seeds and ribs with a small spoon.
  3. Cut apricots lengthwise into three pieces. Slice brie into rectangles approximately 1-1/2" x ΒΌ". Remove strip of fat from duck bacon strips, and cut each strip in half lengthwise.
  4. Place a piece of apricot and piece of brie in each jalapeno half. Wrap a strip of bacon around the jalapeno and secure with a toothpick. Place the stuffed jalapenos in a small baking dish or pie plate. Bake for 20 minutes, or until jalapenos are soft and cheese is melted. Serve hot.
