Shake N Bake Armadillo Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking sheet.
• Cut a slit in each jalapeno pepper. Remove and discard seeds and pulp.
• In a medium bowl, mix sausage, baking mix, Cheddar cheese, crushed red pepper, and garlic salt.
• Stuff jalapenos with the Monterey Jack cheese cubes. Shape sausage mixture around the jalapenos to form balls.
• Arrange jalapeno balls on the prepared baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned.

Steps:

• 1. Mix Monterrey Jack cheese and sausage. Add biscuit mix a little at a time until thoroughly mixed. It should become a thick dough.
• 2. Knead for several minutes then set aside.
• 3. Cut a lengthwise slit on one side of each jalapeno leaving the other side intact. Remove the seeds.
• 4. Stuff each with cheddar cheese. Pinch edges together to close. Set aside.
• 5. Take a small piece of the dough mixture (2 rounded Tbsp.)and flatten it to 1/4 in thick. Wrap it around the stuffed pepper to make an egg shape. Be sure the pepper is sealed completely.
• 6. Dip the "egg" into the beaten egg then roll in the Shake 'n Bake to coat. Repeat with all the peppers.
• 7. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
• 8. If you want to make these ahead of time: Unbaked Armadillo Eggs may be refrigerated up to 2 hours before baking or frozen up to 1 month. If frozen, add about 5 minutes to the baking time.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, bacon bits, chives, and hot sauce. In a separate bowl, mix the uncooked sausage and Cheddar cheese. On a flat surface, mix the seasoned coating mix, cumin, and chili powder.
• Cut a slit lengthwise into each jalapeno pepper, and remove the seeds. Stuff the peppers with the cream cheese mixture. Press the sausage mixture around the stuffed jalapenos, and roll in the seasoned coating mix to coat.
• Arrange the coated jalapenos on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until the sausage is evenly brown.

Steps:

• Slice peppers in half lengthwise and scrape out all the seeds (wear gloves).
• Shred the cheddar& Monterey Jack cheese.
• Try to keep both halves near each other as you have to put them back together later.
• Mix bisquick, raw sausage& cheddar cheese.
• Stuff each pepper with Monterey Jack cheese and put the halves back together.
• Grab a handful of bisquick mixture and mold around pepper in shape of elongated egg.
• Use enough to cover pepper well.
• Dip armadillo egg in beaten egg and roll in Shake'n Bake.
• Bake on broiler pan (can use cookie sheet) at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until crisp.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Lightly spray a large baking pan with cooking spray.
• Mix together the sausage (raw) and grated pepper Jack cheese.
• Add biscuit mix in, 1/2 cup at a time, until all is thoroughly mixed.
• This will make a very stiff dough, and should now be kneaded for about 3 minutes.
• Pinch off pieces of the dough, almost the size of the eggs, and flatten out the piece into a "pancake", about 1/4 inch thick.
• Place one boiled, peeled egg in the center of each "pancake" and roll the dough around each egg to cover it all the way around evenly.
• Seal any edges together with your fingers.
• Continue this until all of the eggs are covered in the dough.
• Place the box of Shake' N Bake into a large shallow dish.
• Crack the 3 additional raw eggs into a bowl; season with a pinch of salt and black pepper and beat.
• Roll each egg in the Shake' N Bake, then in the egg wash, and back again through the Shake 'N Bake.
• Lay each egg on the prepared baking sheet as it is done.
• Bake at 300 degrees for 30 minutes.
• The "Woodpecker Eggs" will seem soft to the touch when they first come out of the oven, but as they cool, they will "crust" nicely.
