– 6 hard-boiled eggs – 3 tablespoons mayonnaise – 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard – 1 teaspoon white vinegar or lemon juice – Salt and pepper to taste – Carrot slices or small pieces for beaks – Whole black peppercorns
1. Peel the hard-boiled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. 2. Mash the egg yolks with a fork or potato masher until they are smooth and lump-free.–
3. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar or lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the mashed egg yolks. Mix until well combined and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste. 4. Transfer the egg yolk mixture into a piping bag or a plastic sandwich bag with a corner snipped off.
5. Pipe the yolk mixture into the hollowed-out egg white halves, filling them generously. 6. To create the chick’s head, gently press a small carrot slice or piece into the center of the yolk mixture at one end of each egg half.
7. Using whole black peppercorns or small round items like black sesame seeds, add eyes to the chick’s head by gently pressing them into the yolk mixture on either side of the carrot slice. 8. Serve the Deviled Egg Chicks immediately or refrigerate them until ready to serve. Enjoy your adorable and delicious appetizers!
