Looking for the perfect Halloween party appetizer? These Spooky Deviled Eggs are the perfect blend of delicious and easy to make!
These little guys are not only super tasty, but they look the part with their eerie green glow and black sesame seed "eyes." Trust me, they'll be the star of your Halloween spread!
Here's what you'll need to whip up this spooky snack:
INGREDIENTS
- 6 large eggs
- Green gel food coloring
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- Black sesame seeds
TOOLS
- Medium pot with lid
- Cutting board
- Knife
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Fork
- Spoon
- (Optional) piping bag
DIRECTIONS
Boil 'em up: Fill a medium pot halfway with water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Gently add the eggs and let them cook for 10 minutes. Once they're done, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs hang out in their hot tub for another 10 minutes.
Cooling and peeling: Let those eggs cool down completely (running them under cold water can help speed things up). Once they're cool enough to handle, peel those shells off!
The green transformation: In a medium bowl, add water and a bit of green gel food coloring (about ⅛ tsp). Stir it up to create your spooky concoction. Now, submerge the eggs in the green water, making sure they're fully covered. Pop them in the fridge for 2-3 hours to let the magic happen.
Prepping the "guts": Take the eggs out of their green bath and give them a quick rinse. They should have a nice, eerie green tint now. Slice them in half lengthwise and scoop the yolks into a separate bowl. Keep those white halves safe on a plate.
The devilish mix: Mash the yolks with a fork until they're nice and smooth. Add in the mayonnaise, mustard, and a tiny bit more green food coloring (maybe ⅙ of a tsp). Stir it all up until it's well combined and looking deliciously devilish.
Piping perfection (optional): If you want to get fancy, transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag. Snip off the end and pipe the mixture into the egg whites. If you don't have a piping bag, just use a spoon to fill the egg whites.
Eyes of the beholder: Sprinkle those black sesame seeds on top of the filling to create spooky little eyes.
Chill out: Refrigerate the deviled eggs for 1 hour before serving. This will help the flavors meld and the filling to firm up.
And there you have it! Spooky, delicious, and surprisingly easy deviled eggs that are perfect for your Halloween festivities. Your guests will be "dying" to get their hands on these!
