Some tips on peeling eggs so you don’t end up with a frighteningly pock-marked egg: use older eggs, start in cold water, don’t overcook the eggs, cool the eggs completely before peeling in a bowl of ice water, and crack the shells all over before you peel, rolling them in your palms. Some great additions include finely grated lemon zest, minced fresh herbs like parsley or chives, finely chopped cornichons or bread-n-butter pickles, and Dijon mustard in place of the yellow mustard.

This is a pretty classic and simplified recipe for deviled eggs, but feel free to add your own little taste twist to the yolk mixture. Then, when it’s party time, pull them out about 30 minutes early to let them come to room temperature. Just arrange them on your spookiest platter and cover them tightly with plastic wrap. If you are making them for a gathering, boil the eggs, make and stuff the deviled eggs, and decorate them earlier in the day.

These take a little bit of time to put together but they are well worth the effort. High on the ewwwwww factor but super tasty! who would want to eat that!? ME!

Press the arms and legs into the deviled egg mixture.Devilish Egg Eyeballs & Spiders. Use some of the sausage pieces you cut off earlier to create arms and legs-these should be roughly rectangle-shaped. Press the body into the deviled egg filling with the curved edge facing away from the baby's head. Trim off a little but from one of the remaining curved edges so that only one edge and you still have a slightly oblong shape. Press the baby's head into the deviled egg filling just inside the dome section of the carriage.įor the body, cut another slice from the sausage and trim off two sides so that you have a more rectangular shape. Cut a curved sliver from a black olive and press onto the sausage so that it looks like the baby's mouth. Stick two chocolate sprinkles side-by side into the sausage so that they look like eyes. The ends of this piece should rest inside the carriage structure and you may have to squeeze the ends together slightly to accomplish this.Ĭut a slice crosswise from a sausage-it should be about 1/4" thick and then trim a bit from the outside to create a slightly smaller circle that fits more easily inside the dome of the carriage. With the top piece you cut from the smaller egg half earlier, create a dome on one end of your carriage by gently pressing the egg into the deviled egg filling. With the egg yolks you set aside earlier, make a deviled egg filling mixing the egg yolks with the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, onion, hot sauce and salt and pepper. Repeat this step to create one more set of wheels at the other end of your carriage. Once through, secure on the other end with another carrot slice, followed by another pickle slice. Stick the other end of the toothpick through the "carriage" section of the egg where you want one set of wheels to be. Skewer a carrot slice onto the end of a toothpick, then do the same with a pickle slice so that the pickle slice is on the outside edge of the carrot.

Cut the smaller half of the egg in half crosswise. On the larger half, cut out a little extra space on the inside to make your egg white "carriage" slightly more spacious. Remove egg yolk from both halves and set aside. Cut hardboiled egg into two pieces, lengthwise, so that one half is slightly larger than the other.
