Preparation
  1. Cut the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks, placing them in a medium bowl.
  2. Using a fork, mash the yolks until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the jalapeño peppers, crumbled bacon, cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the mashed yolks. Stir well until evenly mixed.
  4. Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed egg white halves.
  5. Optionally sprinkle extra bacon and jalapeños on top for added flavor and presentation.
  6. Chill the eggs in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

Serve on a colorful platter with crunchy veggies or crackers for a great contrast. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. Prepare filling a day in advance but fill egg whites just before serving to avoid sogginess.
