I saw this idea on Pinterest and I thought it was absolutely perfect for Halloween! I used cheddar cheese because that is what Chicken Legs prefers, but feel free to use any cheese you like. It was so much fun to carve out the faces for these burgers. These burgers would be perfect for a Halloween get together or dinner for your little ghost and goblins after trick-or-treating. If you don’t want to make burgers, this cheese cut out would also be fun on cheese toast for Halloween morning!
Jack-O-Lantern Cheeseburgers
serves 4
(Printable Recipe)
- 1 lb hamburger
- ½ lb sausage
- 1 packet Ranch dressing mix
- 4 slices cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
In a large bowl, combine hamburger, sausage and Ranch mix. Shape into 4 patties. Grill, broil or pan-fry until the meat is no longer pink.
Cut out jack-o-lantern eyes, nose and mouth out of each cheese slice. Place cheese on burgers; cook until cheese is slightly melted, about 1 minute. Serve on toasted hamburger buns.
Made this tonight for the kids. It was delicious! The pumpkin face got a bit overly melted though and it was kind of a melty mess lol. I'll have to remake for better pics but we wont mind one bit 😉
Cute idea!
The Martineau Family – the fries are Checkers/Rallys brand. I got them at Wal-Mart.
