1 ½ cups grated yellow cheddar
1 ½ cups grated gruyere
1 cups grated mozzarella

Instructions
In a large saucepan, melt the butter. Add the flour and cook through. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth. Stir and let thicken.
Add in the cooked macaroni noodles and cheeses and stir to combine. Split mixture into two 9’inch cling film lined cake trays. Smooth the tops and freeze overnight
The next day, mix the beef mince with garlic, onion, salt and pepper. Divide mixture into a ring mould (cake tins work well!) on a piece of parchment paper. Flatten into two large patties.
Heat oil in a large pan and sear the burgers on both sides.
Leave the second patty in the pan, top with sliced cheddar and the second patty, followed by more sliced cheese. Cover to steam.
Remove the macaroni and cheese. Dredge in flour shaking off excess, followed by egg and let excess drip. Coat generously in panko bread crumbs. Repeat with second disk.
Fry in oil at 180ºC until golden brown. Keep warm in the oven.
Lay one mac and cheese bun on a tray, drizzle with ketchup. Top with lettuce and pickles followed by the double cheeseburger. Top with bacon and the second mac and cheese bun.
Slice and enjoy!
