Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, pepper, and salt. Add the buttermilk and butter and mix just until incorporated. Don't overmix. Add 2 cups of the Cheddar (leave the rest of the cheese out to come to room temperature) and the green onions and quickly mix to combine. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
- When you are ready to bake, spray 2 baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray. Tear off pieces of dough and roll into balls about the size of a golf ball. Arrange them on the baking sheets, brush them with a little buttermilk, and bake them until golden brown, about 10 to 14 minutes.
- In a stand mixer using the paddle attachment, whip the remaining room temperature cheese until it is smooth.
- Slice each biscuit in half and spread a teaspoon of whipped Cheddar onto the bottom. Cut a piece of ham to fit and put it on top of the Cheddar. Dollop with 1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Jelly and cover with the top of the biscuit. Repeat with remaining ingredients and arrange on serving platters to serve.
- Red Pepper Jelly:
- Add the peppers in the bowl of a food processor and process until they are coarsely chopped but not pureed. Transfer the peppers to a large pot and add the cider vinegar, sugar, salt, crushed red pepper flakes, and jalapeno. Mix well.
- Put the pot over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Add the pectin and continue to cook at a slow rolling boil, stirring frequently, until the jelly drips very slowly from a metal spoon, about 20 minutes. Pour into jars, let cool, cover, and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and another with foil, then grease with nonstick spray.
- Trim the tops and bottom tips from the jalapeños. Cut the jalapeños in half crosswise and remove the seeds and ribs, taking care not to break the jalapeños.
- In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, and cheddar cheese with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until well combined. Transfer the cheese mixture to a piping bag or zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
- Pipe the cheese mixture into each jalapeño half to fill completely.
- Divide the pizza dough into 32 1-ounce portions and roll into balls. Gently press each piece of dough into a small, flat circle. Place a stuffed jalapeño half in the center, then gather the dough around the jalapeño and roll into a ball, sealing completely. Place on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the baking soda to the boiling water.
- Working in batches, boil the dough balls, until the dough begins to swell, about 20-30 seconds. Remove from the water and place on the foil-lined baking sheet, arranging in 2 concentric circles with a space in the middle.
- Brush the dough balls with the beaten egg yolk and sprinkle with coarse salt.
- Bake the poppers for about 25 minutes, until the dough is cooked through and tops are deep golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, make the creamy cilantro lime dip: Add the crema, avocado, cilantro, mint, lime zest and juice, and salt to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl that will fit into the center of the popper ring.
- Place the dip in the center of the ring, then serve.
- Enjoy!
