Description

Get ooohs and ahhhs from everyone at your Easter dinner table with these cute chicks. They're so easy and fun to make, let the kids help to turn traditional deviled eggs into the cutest little chicks.

Ingredients

• 12 large hard boiled eggs, peeled
• 1/3 c. mayonnaise
• 1 1/2 t. Dijon mustard, or to taste
• 1/4 t. garlic powder
• 1/8 t. salt, or to taste
• 1 small carrot, peeled and sliced into rings, for beaks
• 6 black olives, for eyes (or capers)

Steps

1. Peel the hard boiled eggs. Slice off a very thin layer from the bottom of the eggs to give them a flat surface to stand up on a platter. Then, cut off a generous top third of the eggs.
2. Squeeze around the base of the eggs to gently loosen the yolks so that they pop right out into a medium bowl. Keep each lid paired with their own bases.
3. Mash yolks with a fork. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, garlic powder and salt. Mash until smooth. Transfer to a ziploc or pastry bag; pipe generously into the egg bases. Place the tops back over the bases; press down slightly to adhere.
