Equipment

  • 1 Medium sized pot
  • 1 mixing bowl
  • 1 Whisk, hand mixer or immersion blender
  • 1 Piping bag (for cake decorating, etc.) If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a gallon sized ziploc bag.
  • 1 large Star Tip See Notes in the Article above for specifics.
  • 1 Coupler for tip
  • 1 Serving Platter

Ingredients

  • 6 Large or extra large eggs
  • 3 tablespoon Mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Yellow mustard (to make the chicks extra yellow! :)
  • 1 teaspoon Sweet pickle juice
  • dash Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 Yellow baby bell pepper
  • 2 Orange baby bell pepper

Instructions

  • Fill pot halfway with water and bring to a boil on the stovetop.
  • Once water begins to boil reduce heat slightly and carefully add eggs to water.
  • Gently Boil eggs for 10 minutes.
  • Remove eggs and place them in a bowl filled with ice water.
  • While they are cooling, prepare the piping bag and cut the peppers into tiny triangles.
  • Once they are cooled, gently peel the eggs.
  • Cut them in half around the middle so that they will stand upright rather than lay on their sides like traditional deviled eggs.
  • Cut a small slice off of each end, to make a flat spot so the white will stand upright. Save the little cutoffs to use as the top of the hatching chick.
  • Scoop out the yolks and place in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the Mayo, mustard and relish, as well as a dash of salt and pepper.
  • Use a hand mixer, or immersion blender, blend until creamy and there are no lumps.

How to Assemble the Chicks

  • Attach the tip to the piping bag and then fill the bag with egg yolk, mayo, mustard, relish mixture.
  • Twist the end of the piping bag, so that no yolk mixture can ooze out of the top of the bag.
  • Hold twisted end of bag in one hand and squeeze, while the other hand guides the tip into the egg white and fills the white in a circular motion.
  • Fill until filling is about an inch taller than the white.
  • Add a little orange beak and little yellow wings, and top with one of the small pieces of egg white that you cut off earlier, for the "shell".
  • Serve and Enjoy! :)
