Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Thingies

Made these for the 4th and boy were they good!

Fresh jalapenos 2-3 inches in size
Cream cheese (softened)
Thin, regular bacon sliced in thirds
Toothpicks

Cut jalapenos in half, length-wise. With a spoon, remove the seeds and white membrane (the source of the heat). Smear cream cheese into each half of jalapeno. Wrap jalapeno with bacon and secure with inserting a toothpick through the center.

Bake on a pan with a rack in a 375 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. You don't want the bacon to shrink so much it starts to squeeze the jalapeno. If the bacon isn't brown enough after 20 minutes, turn on the broiler for a couple minutes to finish it off.
