Ingredients
- 12 slices Bacon
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 24 pieces Mini phyllo shells
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
Step 2
Cook the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then chop into small pieces.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until fully blended.
Step 4
Fold in the chopped bacon, reserving a small amount to use as garnish later.
Step 5
Fill each mini phyllo shell with a heaping teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the filling is warm and the shells are lightly golden.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and garnish each bite with the reserved bacon pieces for an extra crunch.
Step 8
Serve warm and enjoy! These can also be frozen for later use. To freeze, allow the bites to cool completely, then arrange in a freezer-safe container, separating layers with parchment paper. To reheat, bake in a 375°F (190°C) oven until warmed through, about 8-10 minutes.
