Ingredients

Scale

Cheese & Flavor Base

  • 16 oz sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 16 oz Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup crumbled bacon
  • ½ cup pickled jalapeños, diced

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 15 oz evaporated milk
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  1. Combine the Cheeses, Bacon, and Jalapeños – In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded sharp cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, crumbled bacon, and diced pickled jalapeños. Stir everything together until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Whisk the Wet Ingredients – In a separate bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, flour, and eggs until smooth and free of lumps. This will form a creamy base for your cheesy squares.
  3. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients – Pour the wet ingredients over the cheese mixture. Stir well to combine, making sure everything is incorporated into a thick but spreadable mixture.
  4. Transfer to Baking Dish – Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish, then pour the cheesy mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly.
  5. Bake to Perfection – Place the baking dish in a preheated oven at 350°F and bake for 35-40 minutes. The top should turn golden brown, and the center should bubble up. You’ll know it’s done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Slice – Let the dish cool for about 10 minutes to firm up. Once cooled, slice it into squares, and get ready for the cheesy goodness!
  7. Serve Immediately – Serve these warm, cheesy squares right away. They’re perfect as an appetizer, a side dish, or even a savory snack to share. Watch them disappear in no time!
