Jalapeño Popper Crescent Puffs

I love – LOVE – easy and delicious crescent puffs. I grew up with the Breakfast Bites, and these Jalapeño Popper Puffs are now a regular addition whenever I’m hosting!

These Jalapeño Poppers grew out of a surplus of jalapeño peppers in my garden, and wanting to make a jalapeño popper that was a little bit gentler for my previously lacking spice tolerance. These are delicious, easy to make, and perfect for parties.
