Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Begin by cooking the bacon. I typically use a cast iron skillet, but any method you prefer is great. Once cooked, crumble & set aside.
Cook the pasta according to box directions. Watch the pasta, & remove when a little al dente.
While pasta boils, begin your cheese sauce.
Add butter to a medium-sized sauce pan. Once melted, add packet of cheese packet from pasta box, extra shredded cheese & a splash of milk.
Allow to melt & mix until a smooth sauce forms. Add another splash of milk if you need more moisture to loosen.
To the cheese sauce, stir in the diced jalapeños.
Once the pasta has finished, remove, strain & add into your cheese sauce. Mix until pasta is well-coated.
Pour pasta into a small Pyrex baking dish. Sprinkle the top with more shredded cheese, breadcrumbs, crumbled bacon & sliced jalapeños.
Bake for 10 minutes or until the cheese is melty & the breadcrumbs are browned.
Serve & enjoy!
