Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 eggs
Ingredients
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olives for decoration
- Carrots for decoration
Instructions
- Begin by carefully peeling the hard-boiled eggs, ensuring the whites remain intact and smooth.
- Slice each egg in half lengthwise, gently removing the yellow egg yolks and placing them in a separate mixing bowl.
- Mash the egg yolks thoroughly with a fork until they reach a fine, crumbly consistency.
- Add mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper to the mashed yolks. Mix until the filling becomes creamy and well-combined.
- Using a piping bag or spoon, carefully fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, creating a smooth, slightly mounded surface.
- For the bunny decoration, cut small triangular ear shapes from carrot slices.
- Place the carrot "ears" at the top of each deviled egg to create a bunny ear effect.
- Use small olive pieces to create eyes and a nose, carefully positioning them to give a cute bunny face appearance.
- Refrigerate the eggs for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld and decoration to set.
- Arrange on a festive platter and serve chilled as a delightful Easter appetizer.
Tips
- For perfectly smooth egg whites, use eggs that are at least a week old and gently tap them on a hard surface before peeling.
- To create clean, precise piping for the yolk mixture, use a piping bag with a star tip for an elegant finish.
- Choose firm, bright orange carrots for the most vibrant bunny ears.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of paprika or a dash of hot sauce to your yolk mixture.
- To prevent sliding, place a small piece of paper towel under each egg when arranging on the serving platter.
- Prepare the eggs a day in advance and keep refrigerated, but add the decorative elements just before serving to maintain their crisp appearance.
- For a creamier filling, use room temperature ingredients and mix thoroughly.
