Directions

60 min.
1. Step

Hard-boil 10 eggs. After they've cooled, peel them. I suggest cooling the boiled eggs in ice water which makes the peeling process much easier and quicker.

2. Step

Cut the peeled eggs in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the yolks, preserving the whites. Both ingredients will be used further so nothing should go to waste.

3. Step

In a mixing bowl, combine egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, chives, salt and pepper. Mix until you have a smooth paste. I recommend adding salt and pepper gradually and tasting as you go to get your perfect seasoning level.

4. Step

In your halved egg whites, add back the yolk mixture, dividing it evenly to create the eyeballs.

5. Step

Press a green olive into each filled egg half, pimento side up, giving the appearance of an iris and pupil.

6. Step

For a really spooky element, use a toothpick dipped in red food coloring to draw bloodshot lines on the egg white around the olives. Keep it random so it looks more natural and scarier.

7. Step

Lastly, refrigerate before serving and let them chill for about an hour. This helps firm up everything and brings out the flavors more.
