Mcdonald’s double cheeseburger recipe

While replicating the exact taste and texture of an MCD Double Cheeseburger at home can be tricky, you can get pretty close with this recipe! Here’s what you’ll need:

Ingredients:

For the patties (makes 2):
- 1/2 pound ground beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio is recommended)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
For the toppings:
- 2 slices American cheese
- 3 hamburger buns
- 3 slices dill pickles
- 1/4 cup diced white onion
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard

Equipment:

Mixing bowl
Spatula
Grill or frying pan
Hamburger press (optional)

Instructions:

Shape the patties: Gently mix the ground beef, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties that are slightly wider than the hamburger buns. If you have a hamburger press, you can use it to create uniform patties.
Cook the patties: Preheat your grill or frying pan to medium-high heat. Grill or fry the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through to your desired doneness.
Toast the buns: While the patties are cooking, toast the hamburger buns in the grill or pan for a minute or two on each side, until lightly golden brown.
Assemble the burger: Place one cheese slice on each patty while they’re still hot. On the bottom bun, spread ketchup and mustard. Top with the patties, cheese side up, followed by the pickles and onions. Add the top bun and enjoy!
