2. Place about 1 tablespoon of the shredded cheese on prepared sheet; pat into a 2-inch circle. Repeat with remaining cheese, allowing 2 inches between circles.
3. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes or until bubbly and lightly golden. Let stand on baking sheet for 1 to 2 minutes or until cooled but still pliable. Carefully peel off paper.

5. Halve hard-cooked eggs lengthwise and remove yolks. Set whites aside.
6. Place yolks in a small bowl; mash with a fork. Add mayo, cream cheese, jalapeño, green onions, bacon and mix well Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Perfect Presentation Platters

Deviled Egg Platter: I used this platter from Target for this recipe! Pottery Barn also has this cute option with bunnies.

Easter Serving Dishes: These paper bunny plates or these melanine bunny plates are adorable, as well as this Easter Egg Stoneware platter (all from Target.) If you’re looking for a wooden bunny-shaped serving board, I love this wooden bunny serving platter from TJ Maxx or this cute option from Target.

Tip: For extra festive decorations around the serving platter, I love winding twinkle lights or a garland like this carrot garland or this Easter Egg garland for some added character.

White Platters: If you’d prefer a marble look, this white marble pastry board from World Market is beautiful. For a less expensive option, this faux white marble tray from Walmart is also a great choice!

Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are this checkered chopping board that I used for this recipe, my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.

Can I Make This Ahead of Time?

Yes! You can prep them 1-2 days in advance and keep refrigerated.

Storing Leftover Jalapeño Popper Deviled Eggs

Store any leftovers in a Tupperware container or cover with Saran Wrap and refrigerate. These should last about 3 days in the refrigerator (if they don’t get eaten before then!) 🙂

Enjoy!

I hope these Jalapeño Popper Deviled Eggs spiced up your day! Thanks for being here and I hope you have a fantastic week!
