Stuffed Eggs or Deviled Eggs?
Stuffed Eggs or Deviled Eggs? A hard-cooked egg that has been cut in half-lengthwise and the yolk removed, mashed and mixed with any of various flavorings such as minced fresh herbs, Worcestershire Sauce, mustard, curry powder, and so on. Other finely chopped ingredients including chives, toasted nuts, bell peppers, chutney and so forth, may be added.
Did You Know?
Enough mayonnaise or sour cream is blended into the mixture to make it a soft, moist filling. This mixture is spooned back into the egg-white halves and the top is usually sprinkled with paprika. This is the Did You Know part…Adding cayenne pepper, or a hot sauce like Tabasco pepper sauce to the egg yolk mixture makes it a deviled egg. Hmm, I did not know that, did you?

Dill Pickle Dip Deviled Eggs
Ingredients
- 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and cut in half lengthwise
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped dill pickles, about 8-10 spears
- 3 or 4 ounce package cream cheese, room temperature
- 2 tablespoons minced sweet onion
- 2 tablespoons pickle juice
- 2 tablespoons sour cream

- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 (2.82) ounce package Diplicious Dill Pickle Dip Mix, optional
Instructions
- Allow pickles to drain on a triple layer of paper towels for at least 15 minutes. Press on the paper towels to blot out as much excess moisture as possible. Set aside. Meanwhile, remove yolks carefully from egg whites and place yolks in a small bowl. Place egg whites upside down on a triple layer of paper towels to drain. Mash egg yolks with a fork, set aside.
- Using an electric mixer, cream together the cream cheese, onion, pickle juice, sour cream, real mayonnaise, dill, pepper, salt and garlic powder on medium-low speed until thoroughly combined. Add Diplicious Dill Pickle Dip Mix, if using. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the chopped dill pickles and mashed egg yolks.
- Using a small spoon or wide end tip and piping bag, fill egg whites. Refrigerate at least one hour and serve.
