Equipment

Medium saucepan
Mixing bowl
Fork
Ice water bowl
Piping bag (optional)

Ingredients

6 large eggs (340g)
4 oz cream cheese softened (113g)
2 tbsp mayonnaise (30g)
1 tbsp Dijon mustard (15g)
2 tbsp fresh chives finely chopped (6g)
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
Paprika for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water by about an inch. Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot, remove it from heat, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes, which will make peeling easier.
Gently tap each egg on the counter to crack the shell, then peel under running water to help remove the shell without damaging the egg white.
Slice each egg in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks, placing them in a mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside. Add the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and chopped chives to the bowl with the yolks.
Using a fork, mash the yolks and mix them with the cream cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, and chives until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Spoon the creamy mixture back into the egg white halves. For a more elegant presentation, transfer the filling to a piping bag and pipe it into the egg whites.
Sprinkle a pinch of paprika on top of each deviled egg for color, if desired. Chill in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors.
