Everyone loves my hooters. Here's the recipe, given to me by Colleen S., paralegal par excellence, psychic, and former resident of the Great State of Texas (I think she lives in NC now). Everyone loved Colleen's Hooters. I lost touch with Colleen, but still remember her fondly. Now they are mine, I have spiced them up a bit more from the original. They are a really great appetizer with hot salsa and the filling makes a great dip on its own.
Double or triple the recipe, you'll need:
6
1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese
1 (8-oz.) container sour cream
1 (8-oz). package of hot jalapeno jack cheese, grated
1 chipotle chile* and 2 tbsp adobo sauce from the can of chipotles with adobo.
(*NOTE: chipotle chiles are smoked jalapenos that come canned in a very spicy sauce. They are available at Latin American markets. If you can't find them, use a few tablespoons of your favorite hot sauce)
Whiz the above, (EXCEPT for the flour tortillas!), around in a food processor to a coarse puree.
Spread filling not too thickly on a flour tortilla, roll up like a jellyroll, and put a dab of filling on each end. Do this with all six tortillas.
Refrigerate about 1/2 hour to 1 hour, until firm. With a very sharp knife, slice into sushi like slices 1/2" thick. The end slices will not look as good as the others. Eat these when no one is looking. Chill until serving time.
Serve with salsa. Betcha can't eat just one.
