- Slice one jalapeño into thin rounds for garnish; set aside. Seed and finely dice remaining jalapenos.
- In large bowl, combine Mascarpone, cream cheese, Cheddar, garlic powder and diced jalapenos. Spread mixture on bottom of 1 quart baking dish.
- In separate bowl, combine Parmesan, panko breadcrumbs and melted butter; mix to combine. Sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over the dip. Top with reserved jalapeno slices.

Notes
* Jalapeños are not as spicy once the inner ribs and seeds are removed. To retain some heat, leave the seeds in 2 or 3 jalapeños you are dicing.
