Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the mini beef patties for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are fully cooked. Place a small square of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.

Take one tater tot and place a small dollop of mayonnaise on top. Add a piece of lettuce, followed by a cheeseburger patty. Top with a slice of cherry tomato and a pickle slice. Place another tater tot on top to complete the mini burger. Secure the layers with a toothpick.
