Ingredients for Deviled Egg Chicks

  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp white vinegar
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 small carrot (for beaks)
  • 6 black olives (for eyes)
  • Fresh parsley or lettuce (optional, for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1️⃣ Boil and Peel the Eggs

  • Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool, then peel.

2️⃣ Cut and Hollow the Eggs

  • Slice a small piece off the bottom of each egg to create a flat base. Cut the top third off each egg and carefully scoop out the yolks into a bowl.

3️⃣ Make the Filling

  • Mash the yolks with a fork and mix in mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Transfer the filling to a piping bag or zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.

4️⃣ Assemble the Chicks

  • Pipe the yolk mixture into the hollowed egg whites, filling generously so it overflows slightly. Place the top part of the egg back on at an angle to resemble a “hat.”

5️⃣ Decorate the Chicks

  • Cut small triangles from the carrot for the beaks and tiny circles or slivers from the olives for the eyes. Press these onto the yolk filling to create the chick’s face.

6️⃣ Garnish and Serve

  • Arrange the chicks on a platter lined with parsley or lettuce for a fresh, springtime look. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tips for Perfect Deviled Egg Chicks

🐣 Use Fresh Eggs Carefully
Fresh eggs are ideal for flavor, but slightly older eggs are easier to peel after boiling.

🎨 Be Precise with Decorations
Use tweezers or small utensils to place the tiny carrot and olive pieces for precise chick faces.

📦 Make Ahead
Prepare the boiled eggs and filling in advance, but assemble just before serving for the best presentation.

👩‍👧 Get Kids Involved
Let children help decorate the chicks—it’s a fun and easy way to involve them in Easter prep!
