6 Ounces Cream Cheese
3/4 Cup Cheddar Cheese (Shredded)
1 TBSP Chives
1/2 TBSP Red Pepper Flakes
12 Slices Smoked Bacon
Favorite Dipping Sauces
Pre-Heat the Oven to 400*F. Slice your Pickles in half, and gut out the seedy section in the middle using a teaspoon. Pat the Pickles dry in all around with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. In a Large Mixing Bowl combine the Cream Cheese, Cheddar Cheese, Chives, and Red Pepper Flakes, and blend with a hand mixer for about 1 minute. Fill the middle of the pickles with the Cream Cheese Mixture. On a Large Baking Sheet cover it with Aluminum Foil, and a Wire Baking Rack. This will all allow for even cooking and easy cleanup later. If you don’t have a baking rack you wont really get the bottoms of the poppers equally crispy, but they will still turn out okay. Wrap the pickles in bacon in a spiral manner and place onto the Baking Rack. Bake in the oven at 400*F for about 35-40 minutes, but this will vary depending on how long it takes for your particular bacon to crisp up. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the counter for about 5 minutes before serving. Pair with your favorite dipping sauces.
