Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.

Wash the jalapeno peppers and slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and ribs.

In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.

Fill each halved jalapeno with the creamy cheese mixture.

Cut bacon strips in half and wrap each stuffed jalapeno with a piece of bacon, securing with a toothpick if needed.

Arrange poppers on the baking sheet and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the bacon is crispy.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm.
