Ingredients

  • 12 eggs
  • ½ cup mayonnaise (full fat and organic)
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (full fat)
  • 2 tablespoons stone ground mustard
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon red hot sauce (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon chives (chopped), plus more for garnish
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika or cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: If you need to boil your eggs, place them in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool down. Alternatively, you can boil the eggs for 7 minutes and then cool them under cold running water.
  2. Step 2: Peel the cooled eggs and separate the egg yolks from the whites.
  3. Step 3: Add the egg yolks to a food processor. Add half of the egg whites as well, leaving the other half to be finely chopped and set aside in a medium bowl.
  4. Step 4: To the food processor, add mayonnaise, stone ground mustard, white wine vinegar, cream cheese, and red hot sauce if using. Process until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  5. Step 5: Transfer the creamy mixture to the bowl with the chopped egg whites. Season with salt and pepper, add 1 teaspoon of chopped chives, and gently stir everything together.
  6. Step 6: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Sprinkle with paprika or cayenne pepper for extra spice.
  7. Step 7: Garnish with additional chopped chives and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • For a milder flavor, omit the hot sauce and paprikas and add a pinch of garlic powder instead.
  • Use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a lighter, tangier dip.
  • Add crispy bacon bits or diced pickles for extra texture and flavor.
  • If you don’t have a food processor, mash the yolks and ingredients with a fork for a chunkier texture.

Storage

Store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To keep it fresh, cover with plastic wrap if stored in a serving bowl. Garnish with paprika and fresh chives just before serving. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
