Sabrina’s Truffle Mousse Burgers Recipe
The first time I made this recipe, I decided to spice up our burger night with Alexian Truffle Mousse. My husband originally had the idea of adding it to sliders after we had some truffle mousse leftover from a charcuterie board we’d enjoyed with friends. I added some of that creamy truffle goodness to our burgers, and wow—it totally transformed our meal! This burger won’t disappoint.
Recipe Card
Ingredients
- 1 1/3 pound ground Chuck Beef , (or 85/15)
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 large leafs of lettuce
- 1 large tomato , sliced
- 1 Alexian Truffle Mousse , (5 ounces)
- 4 thick slices Provolone Cheese
- 8 ounces crimini mushrooms , sliced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
- In a hot cast iron skillet, add the butter, some salt and black pepper (to taste, I used ¼ teaspoon of each) and mushrooms and sauté until browned then set aside.
- Personal preference, I made 8 patties out of the 1 ⅓ pounds of beef, you could easily do 4 thicker patties, but you’re looking for ⅓ of a pound of beef for each burger.
- Slice your Alexian Truffle Mousse into 4 even slices and add each one to the top of a slice of provolone cheese.
- Season your patties generously with Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
- In a searing hot cast iron skillet, cook your patties to just shy (about 30 seconds) of your desired doneness, I go with medium.
- Place the cheese and Alexian Truffle Mousse on top of your patties in the pan, about 30 seconds before they’re done cooking.
- To the bottom bun add the patties with their toppings, then some mushrooms, lettuce and tomato before adding the top bun.
- Mayonnaise would be a great spread here so it doesn’t compete with all the other flavors in your burger, the Alexian Truffle Mousse is very flavorful, so Provolone and mayonnaise are good complements.

Chef’s Notes
When making these burgers, I always choose a high-quality beef blend. Something with a bit of fat for extra added juiciness and flavor. Trust me, it makes all the difference. Also, if you are serving a crowd, I recommend setting up a burger bar with a variety of toppings so everyone can add their own twist.

How to Store
- Store: If you have leftover cooked burgers, let them cool then store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- Reheat: To reheat the patties on the stove top, warm them in a covered skillet for a few minutes on each side. In the oven, wrap the burgers in foil and bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes.
- Freeze: Wrap the patties in plastic wrap or foil then put in a freezer bag or container. Store components separately. Truffle Mousse can be frozen but then texture might change slightly when it’s thawed. Freeze separately for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating separately in the oven or on the stove then assemble and serve.
