Ingredients
Scale
For the Deviled Eggs:
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Eyeball Decoration:
- Black olives, sliced into rings for pupils
- Ketchup or red gel food coloring for veins
- Green or blue food coloring (optional, for yolk tint)
Instructions
- Boil eggs: Place eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit 10–12 minutes. Cool in an ice bath before peeling.
- Slice and scoop: Cut eggs in half lengthwise and remove yolks into a bowl.
- Prepare filling: Mash yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add a drop of green or blue food coloring if desired.
- Pipe filling: Spoon or pipe mixture back into egg whites.
- Create pupils: Top each filled egg with a black olive slice in the center.
- Add veins: Use a toothpick dipped in ketchup or red food coloring to draw “veins” outward for a bloodshot look.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a spookier effect, tint the yolk mixture green or blue.
- Use red gel food coloring for more vivid “bloodshot” veins.
- Make dairy-free by swapping mayo for mashed avocado or hummus.
- Prep ahead: Store egg whites and yolk filling separately, then assemble before serving.
- Best eaten the same day but can be stored up to 2 days in the fridge.
