Hi beauties! Coming at you with my Easy Easter Deviled Eggs Recipe!
Easter is almost here, and what better way to celebrate than with Deviled Eggs? It's one of my favorite dishes on the holiday table, and I have all the details on how you can make your own recipe. This is a great dish for parties and gatherings, especially at Easter! Who doesn't love deviled eggs!!
Deviled eggs are a delicious, classic party food that is almost always requested for gatherings. In some households, deviled eggs are the only thing that gets devoured — no one saves room for cake! The fancier you make them look, the better they are!
Deviled Egg Chicks Ingredients:
- large eggs, hard boiled and peeled
- mayonnaise
- dijon mustard
- garlic powder
- onion powder
- salt
- small orange pepper
- black olives
How to Make This Easter Deviled Eggs Recipe:
The first thing you are going to do is make your hard boiled eggs. Place cold eggs in a large stainless steel pot, covering them with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, uncovered. Once at a boil, reduce heat to keep a medium boil then set a timer for 8 minutes.
Prepare your ice water bath and as soon as the timer is done, quickly transfer the cooked eggs into ice water. Once completely cool, peel the hard shell off the eggs. If you have trouble peeling eggs, try peeling under a slow stream of water. Very fresh eggs do not peel easily.
Cut off a generous top third of the egg, and place the yolks in a medium bowl. Mash the 12 cooked yolks well with a fork. Add the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Mash everything together until smooth. Transfer the mixture into a ziplock or pastry bag. Pipe generously into egg bases. Place the top ⅓ back over the base and press down slightly to adhere.
To make the chick eyes, use a straw to poke holes in an olive, then squeeze the straw to pop out the little circles of olives. Then place for the eyes. To make the beak, slice little triangles out of the orange pepper. Set chicks on a platter and garnish as desired!
