Cut end off each Jalapeno and slice into 1/4 inch thick round slices. (I keep the tips, not the ends, and make tiny versions of the bites but u can toss em also if u like.).

5
Top each Jalapeno slice with a lump of cream cheese mixture, form the mixture and the slice into the shape of a gum drop or a short cylinder with the jalapeno being the bottom of it. The smoother the shape the prettier they turn out.

*You can use as much of the filling as you like,.

I usually do about 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick depending on the width of the jalapeno slice.

Dip each popper in eggs, then in breadcrumbs, make sure to cover very well in breadcrumbs and if you need to, double dip. ( if u get a lot of egg on it the first time u should not need to double dip.).

Dry for 10 Mins before frying.

Heat the oil in a frying pan to med/low, I do 4 on my stove and it's perfect, make sure there is enough to reach the top of your popper bites, you can not flip they or the filling comes out the top.

Once the oil is up to heat, place prepared poppers in oil, jalapeno side down!

Fry for 3-5 mins or until golden brown. If cream cheese comes out the top make sure to watch and remove that one ASAP so u don't lose filling.
