Why You’ll Love Deviled Egg Chicks
This cute little appetizer idea will make every Easter guest, from youngest to oldest, smile. They’ll make YOU smile because they’re a cinch to whip up! I’ve kept the filling pretty classic here with a mayo/dijon combination but you can have fun with different 🌿 herbs and spices depending on your tastes and what you have on hand. No matter what, the egg yolk filling is super smooth and velvety. Plus, these have a nice little kick to them thanks to a bit of 🌶 hot sauce. They’re the perfect little bite!
How to Prepare Deviled Egg Chicks
🥚 Boil the Eggs: Boil the eggs in a pot of boiling water, about 10 minutes. While they cook, prepare a large bowl of ice water. Submerge the cooked eggs into the ice water. Cool and peel. 🧂 Make the Filling: Next, cut each egg in half and gently scoop out the yolks. Push the yolks through a fine mesh strainer and mix in dijon, salt, pepper, paprika, and sriracha. ⭐ Pipe the Filling: Add the filling to a piping bag fitted with a 1m star tip and then pipe into each egg half. 🥕 Decorate: Finally, place a small piece of carrot in the center of each egg, to act as the chick “beak. Then place two candy eyes onto each egg and arrange the deviled egg chicks nicely onto a plate. Enjoy!
