Dice the bacon and cook in a pan over medium heat until crisp. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400°F and spread the frozen French fries in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Remove the fries from the oven. Sprinkle the fries with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Then, sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the fries, then add the cooked bacon and green onions.
Return the fries to the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese melts. Drizzle with ranch dressing and sprinkle on pickled jalapeños (if using) before serving immediately.
In a saucepan, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with heavy cream over low heat, stirring until smooth. Pour this chocolate mixture over the cooled cheesecake, ensuring it is spread evenly.
