About 30 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch with a little water to form a slurry and stir it into the slow cooker to thicken the sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the patties, cover, and let cook for an additional 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted.
Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
Variations & Tips
For a spicier kick, add a teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes to the sauce. You can also substitute the cheddar cheese with pepper jack for a different flavor profile. If you prefer a lighter version, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream. For a more gourmet touch, consider adding sautéed mushrooms or caramelized onions on top of the patties before adding the cheese.
