I made these for Xmas Eve. I used cream cheese mixed with dried herbs and onion flakes. Excellent, will make them again.

Made these last night for our New Years Eve gathering and they were a hit. I failed to get the right cheese mixture so I substituted spreadable cream cheese seasoned with garlic and onion powders. I mixed some finally diced bacon and spread it on each triangle, then I added chopped jalepenos and a tiny bit of shredded cheese. They were awesome and will get made again

Just like a crescent wrapped jalapeno popper! It was wonderful, and everyone wanted more. Substituted cream cheese with a tsp of garlic powder with dried parsley, a tsp of onion powder, and a tbsp of grated Parmesan. Cooked my own bacon (still chewy). Absolutely wonderful!
