Ingredients
- 12 large hard boiled eggs sliced in half
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon sweet gherkin pickle juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
Garnish:
- Paprika
- Finely sliced green onions or chives
- 3 slices cooked bacon chopped
- Sliced sweet gherkin pickles
Method
- Slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Set the eggs aside on a serving platter.
- Mash the yolks with a fork until very fine. Then add mayonnaise, softened butter, mustard, pickle juice, salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning.
- Mix until smooth and creamy. You can use a fork, spoon, or even an electric hand mixer for extra fluffiness.
- Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg whites. (A piping bag with a star tip makes them extra fancy!)
- Garnish: Sprinkle with paprika, green onions, bacon and a slice of pickle and enjoy or refrigerate until ready to serve.
