Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 5 minutes.

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Roll out the dough into a thin sheet on a floured surface.

Cut the dough into rectangles, about 3x5 inches.

Place a piece of cheese at one end of each rectangle.

Roll the dough around the cheese, sealing the edges tightly.

Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry tequeños in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove tequeños and drain on paper towels.
