Muffin Tin Big Macs
Muffin Tin Big Macs
 They say that some things are beyond perfection. The iconic Big Mac is supposedly one of them - a lily that shouldn't be gilded, a Mona Lisa of mince, bread and delicious sauce. They said the world was flat, but now we have Mini Muffin Tin Big Macs, simplicity incarnate, bite-sized bliss nestled neatly in a muffin tin.

 Cuisine: American
 Recipe type: Burgers
  Ingredients
 - 400g bread dough
 - 1 tbsp sesame seeds
 - 2 burger patties, broken into 8 equal sized chunks
 
For the Big Mac Sauce
 - 225g mayonnaise
 - 1 tbsp mustard
 - 1 tbsp finely chopped pickles
 - 1 tsp white vinegar
 - 1 tsp garlic powder
 - 1 tsp onion salt
 - 1 tsp white pepper
 - ½ tsp paprika
 
For the burgers
 - Finely chopped white onion
 - Shredded lettuce
 - Finely sliced gherkins
 
Instructions
 - Preheat the oven to 180°C/360°F
 - Grease a muffin tin and place 100g round balls of dough in four of the muffin tin holes. Sprinkle them with sesame seeds.
 - Fashion the burger pieces into small burger patties and press them into the eight remaining holes - make sure they are a tiny bit too big for the holes as the meat tends to shrink, so they should fit to exactly the right size for the buns - satisfying much?
 - Bake for 15 minutes until the burger buns have doubled in size and sound hollow when tapped.
 - While the buns are in the oven whisk all the ingredients together for the sauce, adding more salt or sugar according to your taste.
 - When out of the oven cut the burger buns into three pieces. Slather the bottom bun with the sauce, followed by some chopped onion, finely shredded lettuce, a piece of burger cheese, a burger from the tin and some pickles. Add the second piece of the bun and repeat these steps, finishing with the final top piece of the bun.
 - Your tiny burgers are now complete! Have two, or even all four! Enjoy yourself!
