Step-by-Step Instructions

Start by grating the sharp cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese into a large mixing bowl. Incorporate crumbled bacon and diced pickled jalapeños, ensuring an even distribution.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, all-purpose flour, and eggs until smooth and free of lumps.
Pour the wet mixture over the cheese blend and gently stir with a spatula until all ingredients are well combined.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour the cheesy mixture into the dish and spread it evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown.
Allow squares to cool for about 10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving warm.
