Deviled eggs have long been a favorite appetizer for those of the mayonaise loving community. With their creamy texture and fun design they've become a staple at backyard BBQs, potlucks, and holiday meals. Sometimes...these babies need a little extra zing to convince those who graze the appetizer table, that they can't be overlooked.

This post will guide you through a straightforward, reliable, and sure-fire method to making sure your deviled eggs disappear at your next function. Citrus Punch will be required.

How to Prepare Killer Deviled Eggs

Ingredients

Hard-boiled eggs (6 large)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablepoon Citrus Punch
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh chives for garnish

Step 1: Boil the Eggs Perfectly

Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water by about an inch.
Bring water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, turn off the heat and cover the pan. Let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
Drain the hot water and immediately transfer eggs to an ice bath to stop cooking and make peeling easier.
After 10 minutes in the ice bath, peel the eggs gently.

Step 2: Prepare the Filling

Slice the peeled eggs in half lengthwise.
Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
Mash the yolks with a fork until crumbly.
Add mayonnaise, Citrus Punch, and salt & pepper.
Mix until smooth and creamy. Adjust heat by using more or less CP.

Step 3: Fill the Egg Whites

Use a spoon or finger to fill the egg white halves with the yolk mixture.
For a neat presentation, piping bags with a star tip create a decorative swirl, but that's overkill.
Garnish with chives, or a small piece of pickle for extra flavor.
