- Stir together butter, cheeses, and seasonings until well blended. Fold in the chopped LA MORENA Sliced Jalapenos. Press into a 2-cup mold or bowl lined with plastic wrap (I used a cereal bowl). Chill at least 8 hours or overnight (you must do this or it will have no flavor).
- When ready to serve, in a medium bowl combine the crumbled bacon and bread crumbs. Invert the cheese into the bowl and press the mixture onto the top and sides of the cheese ball. Serve with crackers or pretzels.
