Roasted garlic:

Dough:
-
Preheat oven to 375F

Prepare Chebe dough according to package directions, blending cheese, water (or milk if using Chebe All Purpose mix), egg and oil until the dough is smooth and well blended. Separate dough into 24 pieces.
-
Lightly dust a clean surface with corn starch or similar and press a piece of dough to approximately 2”x 3”.
-
Place a filled pepper face down on the pressed dough, then wrap and gently seal the dough around the back of the pepper. Turn the pepper popper face up and place on a baking sheet.
-
Repeat with the remaining pieces. Then brush each pepper popper with egg wash.
-
Place in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes.
