Recipe View Place 2 slices of toasted bread onto 2 dinner plates and top each slice with a hamburger patty. Top each patty with cooked french fries. Pour the cheese sauce on top of everything and serve immediately.

For a richer cheese sauce, try using a blend of cheddar and Gruyère cheese.
If you like a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the cheese sauce.
To make a 'ponyshoe,' use one slice of bread and one hamburger patty per serving.
Chicken tenders can be substituted for the hamburger patties for a different flavor profile.
