Keywords: For extra heat, add diced jalapeños to the mixture. You can fry these bites in oil instead of baking for a crispier texture; ensure the oil is hot enough. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days; reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for optimal crispiness.
