  • These adorable Deviled Egg Chicks are a fun and festive twist on traditional deviled eggs! With a creamy filling and a cute chick design, they’re perfect for Easter, parties, or any occasion that needs a little extra cuteness. These little bites are sure to be a crowd-pleaser!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, hard boiled and peeled

  • ¼ cup mayonnaise

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped pickles (optional)

  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives (optional)

  • ½ teaspoon paprika (for garnish)

  • 12 small black olives (for eyes)

  • 1 small carrot, cut into tiny strips (for beaks)

  • Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the eggs:

    • Cut each hard-boiled egg in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks. Place the yolks in a bowl and set the egg whites aside.

  2. Make the filling:

    • Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix well until creamy and smooth. If desired, mix in chopped pickles and chives for extra flavor.

  3. Fill the egg whites:

    • Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites, mounding it slightly to resemble the body of a chick.

  4. Create the chick features:

    • Cut small strips from the carrot to make tiny beaks. Gently press them into the top of the yolk filling.

    • Use small black olives to create the eyes by slicing them in half and pressing them into the filling.

    • Optional: Garnish with a small piece of fresh parsley to represent feathers or add a little extra green.

  5. Garnish and serve:

    • Lightly sprinkle paprika over the chicks for a bit of color.

    • Arrange the deviled egg chicks on a serving tray and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Make-Ahead: These Deviled Egg Chicks can be made ahead of time. Simply prepare and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving.

  • Customize the Filling: You can add different ingredients to the yolk filling, such as relish, chopped green onions, or a touch of hot sauce for a spicier version.

  • Decoration Tip: If you want a more vibrant color, you can lightly color the carrot strips with food coloring to make the beaks stand out more.
