Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 9β10 minutes.
Drain the hot water and immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.
Peel the cooled eggs and chop them into small, even pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Stir in the finely chopped chives, ensuring they are distributed throughout the mixture.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Use immediately as a sandwich filling or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
