Ingredients

– 6 large eggs
– 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
– 1 teaspoon mustard (yellow or Dijon)
– ¼ teaspoon salt

– Black olives (whole for spiders, sliced for limbs)
– Optional: Chopped chives or green onions (for decoration)


Instructions

Creating these Spider Deviled Eggs is easy if you follow these steps:

1. Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 10-12 minutes.
2. Cool the Eggs: Once done, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Let them cool for at least 5-10 minutes.
3. Peel the Eggs: Gently tap each egg on the counter and peel off the shell under running water.
4. Prepare Filling: Cut each egg in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. Place yolks in a mixing bowl.
5. Mix Ingredients: Mash the yolks with a fork, then add mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and paprika. Mix until smooth and creamy.
6. Fill Egg Whites: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the halved egg whites.
7. Create Spiders: Cut olives in halves. Use half olives as the body and place four smaller slices on each side for legs, mimicking a spider’s appearance.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the tops for added color if desired.
9. Chill: Refrigerate the filled eggs for 10-15 minutes to firm up the filling.
10. Serve: Present on a decorative platter to showcase your spooky creation.
