Chopped cilantro (optional)
Pats of butter

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Fill each jalapeño half with approximately 1 ounce of cream cheese. Bake the stuffed jalapeños on a baking sheet for 25-30 minutes, then remove from the oven.
On two slices of bread, place 1 slice of cheddar cheese each. On the other two slices, place 1 slice of Monterey Jack cheese each. Slice the cooked stuffed jalapeños into bite-size pieces and distribute them on the cheddar-covered slices. Add the bacon to the Monterey Jack-covered slices. Optionally, sprinkle chopped cilantro on one side.
Combine the slices to create 2 sandwiches.
Top each sandwich with several pats of butter. Place them in a skillet over medium-low heat, butter side down. Grill each side until lightly browned, ensuring that the cheese becomes melted and gooey.

Adjust cooking time if you prefer your jalapeño poppers less soft.
Choose high-quality smoked nitrate-free bacon for an enhanced flavor profile.
Elevate the experience with thick slices of bakery-style white, Italian, or European artisan bread, ensuring the cheese takes center stage.
