1. Heat oven to 400° F.
2. Boil potatoes until fork tender, approximately 15-20 minutes. Cut in half and allow to cool.
   In bowl, use spatula to combine cream cheese, cheddar, chives, salt, pepper and jalapeno, if desired.
3. Once chilled, spread cream cheese on half of cut potatoes and sandwich each with other halves. Wrap each potato using half rasher of bacon around cut middle to ensure cheese doesn’t escape.

5. Turn oven to broil. Broil 2 minutes, turn once and broil 2 minutes until bacon reaches desired crispiness.

Tip: Boil potatoes 2 days ahead. Fill and wrap potatoes 1 day ahead then bake and serve on game day.
