Ingredients

Cream Cheese Mixture

4 ounce cream cheese softened
1 tablespoon garlic minced
1 teaspoon Italian herbs

Burgers

1 pounds ground beef
8 teaspoons garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste

Creamy Garlic Burger Sauce

¼ cup water
2 tablespoons garlic minced
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ cup water

For Garlic Overload Burgers

4 slices provolone cheese
4 brioche hamburger buns

Instructions

Making the Cream Cheese Mixture

In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, minced garlic and Italian herbs and blend well. Divide into 4 equal portions.

Seasoning and Making the Burgers

In a large bowl, mix the ground beef with the garlic powder and salt and pepper.
Divide the hamburgers into 8 equal portions. Form the meat into balls and then flatten into a patty about 1/4" thick. Remember to make the burgers a bit over sized to account for shrinkage when cooking. In the middle of 4 patties, spoon some of the cream cheese mixture.
Top each of the four patties with the cream cheese mixture with the patties without. Gently press the burgers together to form a large burger.
Grill burgers as desired.
When almost ready to remove burgers, add a slice of provolone cheese to the top of each burger. Allow cheese to melt by closing grill (or placing lid over burgers if using something other than a grill).

Creamy Garlic Burger Sauce

In a saucepan, boil 1/4 cup of water over medium heat.
Stir in the minced garlic and garlic powder. Boil until the water is nearly evaporated, about 5 minutes. It's okay for some water to remain, but you want very little.
Stir in the heavy cream, Parsley, salt, and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 1/4 cup of water and stir until dissolved. Add to the cream mixture.
Continue boiling, stirring constantly, until thickened. About 3 minutes.
Remove from heat. It will continue to thicken upon cooling.

Bringing it all together
