An appetizer featuring jalapeños stuffed with cream cheese and pepper jack, wrapped in crescent roll dough and decorated with candy eyes for a fun Halloween-themed dish.
1: Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

3: Wash and cut jalapeños in half, keeping the stems if possible. De-seed them.
4: Mix cream cheese, pepper jack, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
5: Open the crescent rolls and press together the creases to form squares.
6: Cut 10 long strips from each square.
7: Spoon the cheese mixture into the jalapeños.
8: Wrap the jalapeños with crescent dough strips, leaving a gap for the candy eyes.
9: Whisk the egg and baste the wrapped jalapeños with it.
10: Bake in the oven for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown. After cooling, add candy eyes.
11: Serve and enjoy!
