Ingredients for A Sweet Treat

  • Hot Dog Bun
  • 1 tablespoon butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • Butterscotch Chips

How to Make A Sweet Treat

  1. Gently split the hamburger bun in half.
  2. Spread the softened butter evenly over both halves of the bun.
  3. Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the buttered bun halves.
  4. Add your choice of chocolate chips (or other desired chips) to one half of the bun.
  5. Carefully close the bun.
  6. Microwave for 30-60 seconds, or until the bun is warm and the chocolate chips are melted. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave.
  7. Let the bun cool slightly before enjoying. The bun will be hot upon removal from the microwave, so allow it to cool to your desired temperature.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
