Ingredients:

Dough:

• 18 oz all-purpose flour,
• 0.7 oz fresh yeast,
• 1.4 oz sugar,
• 7 fl oz milk,
• 1 egg,
• 3.5 oz softened butter,
• ½ teaspoon salt.

Add-ons:

• 14 oz ground beef,
• 1 teaspoon salt,
• 2 tablespoons ketchup,
• 2 tablespoons mustard,
• 6 slices cheddar cheese,
• 1 oz pickles,
• 5 oz sliced bacon,
• 1 egg,
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds.

Instructions:

Step 1: Pour the all-purpose flour into a bowl. Add dried yeast mixed with sugar, pour in the milk, add the egg, and start kneading the dough. Gradually add softened butter and salt while kneading. Form a ball, place it in a bowl, and cover it. Set aside for 2 hours to rise.

Step 2: Sauté the ground beef in a pan with heated oil, seasoning it with salt. Fry the bacon in a dry pan.

Step 3: Transfer the risen dough onto a counter and knead it for a bit. Tear off pieces of dough and use them to line the bottom and part of the sides of an 8-inch diameter baking pan. Spread with ketchup and mustard.

Step 4: Next, layer part of the sautéed beef, cheese, more beef, cheese, sliced pickles, and fried crumbled bacon into the pan. Cover with small balls of dough and brush with beaten egg. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and place in an oven preheated to 340°F. Bake for 30 minutes.

Step 5: Cut the ready XXL cheeseburger into slices like a cake. It tastes best when warm. Enjoy!
