Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
- 2 slices Bread or toast (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is well-combined and slightly frothy.
Cube the cream cheese into small pieces and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt completely without browning.
Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Using a silicone spatula, gently stir the eggs continuously in a circular motion. Be patient, as cooking on low heat ensures a soft and creamy texture.
When the eggs are about halfway set but still slightly runny, add the cream cheese cubes to the skillet. Stir gently to distribute the cream cheese into the eggs, allowing it to melt slowly.
Continue stirring gently until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and creamy. This usually takes about 5–7 minutes total cooking time.
Remove the skillet from heat immediately to prevent overcooking. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the Comfort Eggs immediately, garnished with freshly chopped chives if desired. Pair with toasted bread for a complete meal.
