Ingredients (per serving):
- 1/2 pound ground beef

- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1/4 teaspoon paprika

- Toppings of your choice (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, etc.)
Cooking Tips:
- Use ground beef with a higher fat content (80/20) for a juicier burger.
- Don't overwork the meat when forming the patties, as this can make them tough.
- Make a small indentation in the center of each patty before cooking to prevent it from puffing up.
Instructions:
1. In a bowl, mix together the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
2. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form each into a patty.
3. Place a quarter cup of shredded cheddar cheese in the center of one patty, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Place the other patty on top and press the edges together to seal the cheese inside.
5. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
6. Cook the burgers for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
7. Toast the hamburger bun and assemble the burger with your desired toppings.
