Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water by about 1 inch. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, turn off the heat, cover the saucepan, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 12 minutes.
Drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes. Carefully peel the eggs under running water to remove the shells.
Slice each egg in half lengthwise and gently pop out the yolks into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Place the egg white halves on a platter, cut side up.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until crumbly. Add the mayonnaise, blue cheese, Dijon mustard, chopped thyme, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves, evenly dividing it among all 12 halves.
Sprinkle the filled eggs with paprika and garnish each with a small sprig of fresh thyme for a decorative touch.
Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving.
