Carefully peel and cut hard-boiled eggs in half length-wise. Remove the yolks and place them in a medium mixing bowl. Set the egg whites on a serving platter or plate.
6 hard boiled eggs
Use a fork to smash the egg yolks until they reach a crumb-like texture.
Add mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and softened cream cheese to the yolks. Mix until combined and smooth. Break bacon up into little bits. Add ¾ of the bacon bits, diced jalapeno, and shredded cheddar cheese to the bowl with the yolks. Mix to combine.
¼ cup mayonnaise, 1 ounce cream cheese, ½ tablespoon white wine vinegar, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, ⅛ teaspoon pepper, 5 strips bacon, 1 jalapeno, 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese
Transfer the egg yolk mixture to a piping bag or a plastic baggie with one corner cut off.
Pipe the egg filling into the egg whites.
Sprinkle the remaining bacon bits over the filling. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!

Cold hard-boiled eggs are easier to peel. Place your hard-boiled eggs in a bowl and refrigerate the night before making your eggs to peel them easily. Or, place your hard-boiled eggs in an ice water bath until cooled down and easy to peel.
Peel your eggs very carefully after cooling to avoid making "craters" in the eggs with your fingernails.
Prepare your crispy bacon in the oven ahead of time or as the eggs are boiling, on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper or foil. Bake it at 400°F for about 15 to 20 minutes until it's crispy.
