Ingredients
  

  • 4 burgers cooked as desired
  • 4 burger buns
  • 8 oz white button mushrooms sliced
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • ΒΌ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp Better than Bouillon Beef Base
  • dash worcestershire sauce preferably Lea & Perrin's
  • 1 Tbsp corn starch (optional)
  • swiss cheese sliced

Instructions
 

  • Saute the sliced mushrooms in butter until browned and fully cooked. Set aside on a paper towel lined plate to drain and cool.
  • In a small saucepan over medium low heat, whisk the Better than Bouillon Beef base with the heavy whipping cream. Add a dash (just a few drops) of worcestershire suace and whisk to incorporate. At this point you should taste the sauce - you do not want the worcestershire to be overpowering, and want to have a distinctly beefy flavor from the beef base. Now is the time to adjust if you wish to add more of anything.
  • Whisk in corn starch to thicken the sauce - you can omit this step, or add additional corn starch to your liking, however too much corn starch may produce a flavor of it's own.
  • As your burgers are cooking, melt on your slice of swiss cheese. Toasting your burger buns is optional but recommended.
  • Top your burger with mushrooms to taste, and drizzle with at least one Tbsp of sauce per burger. Spreading the sauce on your bun will allow for a more even, less drippy coverage of sauce.
