Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Season the ground beef with salt and pepper and form into 125g balls. Cover with cling film and roll out with a rolling pin into a burger patty about 1cm thick. Make sure the patties are slightly larger than the buns, as the meat will shrink during cooking. Fry the finely chopped chili peppers in the butter for a few minutes over medium heat. Add the cream cheese, milk, and seasonings, and wait a moment until the cream cheese has completely dissolved. Stir in the tomato paste and water. Dissolve the cheddar and processed cheese while stirring, then keep the sauce warm on the lowest heat, stirring occasionally. Caution! It can burn easily! Fry the burger patties and lightly toast the buns. Spread the cheese sauce on the bottom and top of the buns. Place a patty on the bottom, top with a slice of processed cheese and the sliced ​​jalapenos. Place a second patty on top of the jalapenos, then place the top of the buns on top and serve.
