- 1 (8 oz) package of cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: fresh herbs or a sprinkle of hot sauce for extra flavor
Preparation
Step 1: Make the Cream Cheese Filling
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the filling is smooth and well combined. For an extra kick, add fresh herbs or a dash of hot sauce.
Step 2: Prepare the Doritos
Carefully split each Dorito chip at the seam using a sharp knife to create a small opening without breaking it entirely.
Step 3: Stuff the Doritos
Using a piping bag or small spoon, fill each Dorito with 1-2 teaspoons of the cream cheese mixture. Gently press the chip closed to secure the filling.
Step 4: Chill and Serve
Place the stuffed Doritos on a tray and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to let the filling set. Serve chilled or bake in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-7 minutes for a warm, crunchy version. Enjoy!
Tips for Success
- Extra Crunch: Bake the stuffed Doritos for a warm, crispy texture.
- Flavor Variety: Experiment with different Doritos flavors like Cool Ranch or Spicy Nacho for unique twists.
