Just took these out of the oven a few minutes ago but haven’t served them yet. I don’t think any will be coming home with me. Shouldn’t review a recipe if you altered it but I only had 8 ounces of parm so added 8 of sharp cheddar. It’s a good substitution. I think I’ll try it with pepperjack too. One cup of panko was plenty. I would personally go with a little more jalapeño or add chili powder to the cheese mixture.My food processor was out so I mixed the dough in that. I’ll use it again but will keep my cream cheese in the refrigerator instead of room temp. That might eliminate the extra half hour it took to firm the dough up to make it easier to handle.
