Jalapeño Popper Pinwheels are bite sized, creamy, delicious snacks or appetizers that are filled with cheese, bacon and jalapeños and rolled up in a tortilla!
In a big bowl, use an electric mixer to blend the cream cheese and sour cream until it's smooth.
Add in the cheese, bacon, jalapenos, and green onions to the bowl. Stir everything together until it's well mixed.
Place a tortilla on a clean surface. Take about one-fifth of the mixture and spread it evenly on the tortilla, leaving a half-inch border around the edges.
Roll up the tortilla tightly, making a long log shape. Repeat this with the rest of the tortillas and filling.
Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap, folding the ends of the plastic under. Put them in the fridge for at least 4 hours, but overnight is even better.
Take the logs out of the plastic wrap. Slice them into half-inch pieces and serve. Enjoy!

These are not spicy, but if you want to give them some kick, leave the membrane and seeds inside of the jalapeños.
You can use 10-inch burrito tortillas instead of the 8-inch ones. If you use the bigger ones, you only need 4. Depending on the brand, the 8-inch ones I used (from Old El Paso - not a paid link) will be called "Burrito sized" - in other brands it may be called "taco size" - so it really varies by brand. Different brands seem to have different definitions. Just know that if you have the 10-inch, it will only make 4 logs, but after cutting them all, you end up with the same amount.
Using a serrated knife makes these super easy to cut.
Leftover pinwheels need to be stored in a container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or place them in a freezer safe container or bag for up to 3 months.
