Four Cheese Jalapeno Poppers

Easy Cheese Stuffed Jalapeños are the BEST party appetizer! Jalapeño poppers are stuffed with a mixture of four different cheeses for a decadent bite every single time.

Four Cheese Jalapeno Poppers – Recipe

Stuffed Jalapeño Recipe

Jalapeno popppers are the supreme appetizer. I'm sure I've said this before. They're crazy delicious and extremely popular. And I'm what you'd call a super fan of these bad boys.

Every time I make stuffed jalapeños for a party, they're the first things to go. Especially when they're stuffed with loads of ooey gooey cheese, and this recipe is no exception. We're talking a combination of four different cheeses - cream cheese, goat cheese, asiago and white cheddar. Are you drooling yet?

It's a great combination, with plenty enough of the creamy cheese to help everything blend together into a consistent bite. Seriously, make these and watch them disappear in a matter of minutes. So, now that we have the peppers, it is party time. Whether it's a potluck or Superbowl Sunday, these cheese stuffed jalapeños will steal the show!

Four Cheese Jalapeno Poppers - The Recipe
Four Cheese Jalapeno Poppers - The Recipe

Ingredients in Stuffed Jalapeños

  • Jalapeño peppers
  • Cream cheese
  • Goat cheese
  • Asiago cheese
  • White cheddar cheese
  • Garlic
  • Paprika or hot chili powder (for serving)

How to Make Cheese Stuffed Jalapeños

Prepare the pepper. Slice the jalapeños in half, lengthwise, and scoop out the insides with a spoon. Place them on lightly oiled baking dishes.

Make the filling. Simply combine all of the cheeses and garlic in a bowl.

Stuff the peppers. Fill each jalapeño with the cheese mixture. Try to distribute the filling evenly.

Bake. Bake the peppers at 350°F for about 20 minutes.

Storage

Once the peppers have fully cooled to room temperature, you can transfer them to an airtight container and keep them stored in the fridge. They'll stay fresh for about 2-3 days. For the best results, reheat them either in the oven or your air fryer until they're warmed all the way through.

Recipe Tips & Notes

  • Soften the cream cheese. Don't forget this step! Too often, I start to make a recipe like this one only to realize that I forgot to let the cream cheese sit on the counter. Let it sit at room temperature for at least 30-45 minutes before mixing it so it's nice and soft.
  • Don't be afraid of the heat. These stuffed jalapeños are party favorites because they're really not too hot. Since they're cored, the heat is completely tamed. Even people who shun spicy food can enjoy these.

    I can’t wait to try this- however, I’m not a fan of goat cheese. Could I leave it out totally or should I replace it with something else?

      Carrie, yes, you can skip the goat cheese and add in a bit more cream cheese, or sub in another cheese. No problem! Let me know how they turn out for you.

    These look awesome and will try. Can you freeze them after they are baked or should you freeze them before baking? Just wanted to make a whole bunch and bring out and to heat up for drop-in company.

    REPLY: Brenda, yes, you can freeze these BEFORE cooking them. Just cook them a bit longer to make sure they cook through properly. -- Mike from Chili Pepper Madness.

    This is a more sophisticated version of what I have been making for years.I use only sharp cheddar and often have them as a snack. It is interested that you think people who don't eat spicy food would like these. I'm not so sure.

    REPLY: Hi, we actually mention that they are not spicy, and non-spicy food lovers would be able to enjoy these. So good! -- Mike from Chili Pepper Madness.
