Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon crumbled

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 bag Nacho Cheese Doritos

  1. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Take two Doritos chips and sandwich a small spoonful of the cream cheese mixture between them. Press gently to seal.
