4 pcs We used birthday cake macarons with sprinkles for the bun But your flavor preference is fine! You can also make it on your own; this recipe will help you make it.
1 cup Dark chocolate HannahMax cookie chips for the “patty.”
2 tbsp Red cookie icing for the “ketchup.”
1 tbsp Mint green fondant for the “lettuce.”
1 cup Yellow Shape-n-amaze decorating dough for the “cheese.”
1 tbsp Frozen sugar cookie squares

To make the “cheese,” roll out the Shape-N-Amaze (or you can use yellow fondant for this too).
Next, cut it into shapes with a mini square cookie cutter.
Then, set aside to firm up a bit.
For the “lettuce,” make a small ball of mint green fondant. Start to spread it out with your fingers and also spread it thinly around the edges.
This will make the fondant start to curl and crease randomly, which will appear like pieces of real lettuce.
Once you have all of your pieces, assemble them with “ketchup,” aka red cookie icing.
Place the layers together. I got pretty generous along the cheese layer so it would peek through to look like real sauce on a cheeseburger.
A macaron cheeseburger that is.

To make the french fries, use a non-serrated knife to cut single tiny slivers from the semi-frozen sugar cookie squares.
The slivers should only be about a 1/4 of an inch thick on all sizes and an inch long. You want to cut them this small because they expand and rise a bit as they’re baked.
It’s important that the dough be semi-frozen. Otherwise, the fries lose their shape too easily once they’re baked.
Place them about an inch apart on a baking sheet. However, only bake them for about 4-5 minutes instead of the usual package bake time.
