Ingredients
- 16 pieces Cherry peppers (pickled, jarred)
- 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 4 ounces Goat cheese (crumbled)
- 8 slices Prosciutto (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (freshly ground)
Directions
Step 1
Drain the jarred cherry peppers and carefully remove the stems and seeds using a small knife or spoon. Set the prepared peppers aside on a plate.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, goat cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and evenly combined.
Step 3
Scoop the cheese mixture into a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with the tip cut off for easier filling.
Step 4
Carefully pipe the cheese mixture into each prepared cherry pepper, filling them to just below the edge.
Step 5
Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise to create thin strips. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around each stuffed cherry pepper, securing it in place by gently pressing the edges of the prosciutto together.
Step 6
Arrange the Cherry Pepper Shooters on a serving platter and garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
Step 7
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
