1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

   Next, lay out the bacon strips in a single layer on the foil, allowing them some space to crisp up beautifully.

3. Step 3

   Pop them in the oven and let them bake for about 15 minutes, or until they reach that perfect golden-brown and crispy texture.

4. Step 4

   Once they’re done, carefully transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess grease.

   While the bacon cools, grab a mixing bowl and combine the cream cheese, softened butter, and shredded Cheddar cheese.

6. Step 6

   Mix these ingredients together until they’re well blended and creamy.

   Now, add in the zesty lime zest, fresh lime juice, and minced garlic, stirring everything together until it’s nicely combined.

   For a little kick, gently fold in the chopped serrano peppers, adding a delightful burst of flavor.

   To let the flavors meld, pop the mixture in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes, allowing it to chill and firm up.
