Ingredients
  

  • 12 large eggs, peeled hard boiled eggs
  • cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons dill or regular pickles, gherkins, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon hot sauce such as Frank’s
  • teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • Sweet or smoked paprika for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cut the eggs in half and remove the egg yolks. Transfer them into a large bowl and mash until almost smooth.
  • Add in pickles, mayonnaise, butter, mustards, salt, black pepper, sugar and hot sauce. Mix all the ingredients until well combined. I simply use a fork for this but for a more creamy texture, you can beat the mixture with an electric hand mixer on low speed. Taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly.
  • Transfer the fluffy egg yolk mixture into piping pastry bag or simple ziplock bag and cut out a small hole in the corner of the bag. Fill each egg halves with enough of filling and arrange on a serving platter.
  • Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika powder, crispy bacon, sliced green onion or more sliced gherkins. We also like to add extra spicy sauce drizzle over the top right before serving.
  • Serve right away.
