  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp white vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Black or green food coloring

  • Fresh chives cut into small pieces

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Ice bath
  • Small bowl
  • Piping bag (optional)
  • Platter

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Hard boil the eggs, then cool them in an ice bath before peeling and slicing them in half lengthwise.
  2. Carefully scoop out the yolks into a bowl, arranging the egg white halves on a platter.
Filling and Assembly
  1. Mash the egg yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, pepper, and a few drops of food coloring until smooth and evenly colored.
  2. Transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag or a spoon and fill each egg white half.
Decoration
  1. For spider eggs, place a halved olive in the center and arrange small chive pieces around it as legs.
  2. Alternatively, for eyeball eggs, use a whole olive slice for the iris and a small dot of red food coloring for veins.

Notes

For extra spooky effects, use red food coloring gel to draw "bloodshot" veins on the egg whites before filling.
