I have made these a few times & always get rave reviews from my husband and friends. Add more jalapenos if you like them super spicy. The sauteeing & the cream cheese tend to mellow the heat of the jalapenos. I leave the seeds & membrane on the jalapeno to maximize on the heat. ENJOY!

ingredients

1 (13 7/8 ounce) package pizza crusts (pillsbury refrigerated)
4 slices bacon, sliced
¹⁄₂ cup red pepper, finely chopped (aprox. 1 small pepper)
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped fine
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
¹⁄₂ cup corn chips, crushed

directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Open the crust. DO NOT UNROLL. Place the pizza dough on a lightly floured cutting board.
Gently roll the log shape into a thinner cylinder measuring aprox. 11 1/2 inches.
Using a sawing motion, cut the dough into 24 pieces.
Place on a baking pan; press the dough pieces slightly (helps prevent them from rising too much).
Bake 11-13 minutes until golden brown.
Fry the bacon & remove once cooked.
Using 1 tsp bacon drippings, saute the red pepper & jalapenos until tender.
Combine cream cheese, 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, sauteed peppers & bacon; mix well.
Divide evenly over the crusts.
Combine remaining cheese w/ corn chips.
Sprinkle on top.
Bake 4-6 minutes until cheese is melted.

These are DELICIOUS. I make them all the time and they get eaten up so fast! I always use the thin crust pizza dough, and that way you don't need to stretch it out.. just cut and go. Also, I think it's plenty spicy with just one jalapeno.
