Instructions:
1. Prepare the Bacon
Begin by cooking the bacon until it’s nice and crispy. Once cooked, crumble it into small pieces and set it aside to cool.
2. Make the Cream Cheese Filling
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, crumbled bacon, and any optional ingredients you like—green onions, shredded cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix until everything is well incorporated. The mixture should be creamy and thick enough to hold its shape when stuffed into the Doritos.
3. Stuff the Doritos
Carefully take one Dorito chip at a time and spoon a small amount of the cream cheese and bacon mixture onto the center of the chip. You want just enough filling so it’s packed but not overflowing. Gently press another Dorito on top to form a little “sandwich” or “pocket” with the filling inside.
4. Arrange and Serve
Once all the Doritos are stuffed, arrange them on a serving platter. You can enjoy them immediately, or refrigerate them for a few minutes if you prefer the filling to firm up slightly.
Serving Suggestions
These Cream Cheese and Bacon Stuffed Doritos are perfect as a standalone snack or as part of a larger spread. Serve them at your next game day, movie night, or party, and watch them disappear quickly. For added flavor, serve them with a side of salsa, ranch dressing, or guacamole for dipping.
You can also get creative with variations by adding additional fillings. Some options include shredded chicken, jalapeños, or cream cheese with ranch seasoning to take the flavor to the next level.
Storage Tips
If you have leftovers (though it’s unlikely), store the stuffed Doritos in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to 2-3 days. Be aware that the Doritos might lose their crunch over time, so it’s best to enjoy them right away for the best texture and flavor.
