EASTER DEVILED EGGS RECIPE (DEVILED EGG CHICKS)
A dozen eggs with a hard-boiled center and a creamy yellow yolk made to look like chicks for a perfect Easter appetizer.
Ingredients
- 12 Large eggs
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon fine salt
- 1 small orange bell pepper
- 6 black olives
Instructions
How To Make 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.
How to Make The Delived Eggs Chicks:
- 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!
