Tony’s Jalapeno Wrap 🌶️

Description: This quick and easy appetizer packs a spicy kick that’s perfect for any gathering. Inspired by a colleague’s contribution to an office party, this recipe has become a must-have for gatherings of all sizes.

  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Servings: 48 bites

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 cup Miracle Whip
  • 1 jalapeno pepper (diced)
  • 1 package tortillas (large)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Spicy Mix:

    • In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, Miracle Whip, and ranch dressing until smooth and well blended. This creamy base sets the stage for the bold flavors to come.
  2. Add the Heat:

    • Dice the jalapeno pepper finely, adjusting the quantity to suit your taste preferences. For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes before dicing. Add the diced jalapenos to the creamy mix, infusing it with a fiery kick that will tantalize your taste buds.
  3. Assemble the Wraps:

    • Lay out a tortilla shell on a clean surface. Spoon a generous portion of the creamy jalapeno mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Spread it evenly, leaving a small border around the edges to make rolling easier.
  4. Roll it Up:

    • Carefully roll the tortilla into a tight cylinder, ensuring that the filling is securely enclosed. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and creamy mixture until all the ingredients are used up.
  5. Chill and Set:

    • Place the rolled tortillas in the refrigerator and let them chill for about an hour. This step allows the flavors to meld together while also firming up the wraps for easier slicing.
  6. Slice and Serve:

    • Once chilled, remove the wraps from the refrigerator and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Arrange them on a serving platter and watch as they disappear within moments, delighting your guests with their creamy texture and spicy flavor.
