Cut the tops off the fresh jalapenos and remove the membranes and seeds to create little boats.

Microwave 4 ounces of cream cheese for 15 seconds to soften it.

Shred the velveeta cheddar block and mix it with shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

Add buttermilk, 2 eggs, paprika, salt, and pepper to the cheese mixture and mix well.

Scoop the cheese mixture into the prepared jalapeno boats.

Prepare a batter by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with plain bread crumbs and set aside.

Dip the stuffed jalapenos first in plain flour, then into the egg batter, and finally into the bread crumb mixture.

Place the battered jalapenos in the freezer for about an hour.

Deep-fry the jalapenos in hot oil, boat side up, until they turn a good golden brown.

Remove the fried jalapenos from the oil and let them drain.
