Preparation

Preheat oven to 400º.  Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside.

Filling:
Combine the softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, Sun Dried Apricot BBQ Sauce, and jalapeño pepper.

Process:
Using a knife carefully slice each jalapeño lengthwise.
Remove the veins and seeds then rinse in cold running water.
Place jalapeños on baking sheet. 
Set aside.

Slice bacon strips in half.

Divide the filling equally between among the jalapeños.
Wrap each half strip bacon around the jalapeño.
If necessary use a toothpick to keep the bacon in place.

Bake in the oven until bacon becomes crispy and cooked through, about 20 to 25 minutes.
