Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
Soak 24 toothpicks in water.
Cut the jalapenos in half and using a spoon, scoop out the seeds. Use kitchen gloves if necessary. If you like a little more heat, leave a few of the seeds.
Smear about a spoonful of cream cheese into the hollowed out jalapenos.
Add a teaspoon or so of jam on top.
Sprinkle some of the shredded cheese on top.
Wrap with a slice of bacon.
Spear with a toothpick.
Place in oven and cook for about 30-35 minutes until the bacon looks crispy. If using fig jam, the coloring of the poppers may appear darker, but they won't be burnt.
Serve immediately.
