Ingredients
Dough
Filling
Dough Preparation
1. Combine Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
2. Cut in Butter
Add the unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Add Milk
Pour in the milk gradually, mixing with a wooden spoon until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little more milk, one tablespoon at a time.
4. Knead the Dough
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently for about 1-2 minutes until smooth. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Filling Preparation
5. Prepare the Filling
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, diced jalapenos, and softened cream cheese. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
6. Roll Out the Dough
Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each portion out into a round shape about 1/4 inch thick.
7. Add Filling
Place a generous spoonful of the cheese and jalapeno filling in the center of each rolled-out dough circle.
8. Seal the Dough
Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges together with your fingers to seal, then crimp with a fork for extra security.
Cooking
9. Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
10. Bake the Jalapeno Cheddar
Place the prepared jalapeno cheddar on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
11. Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
