Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 large eggs
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup milk
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch casserole dish and set aside.
Place the eggs in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
Transfer the boiled eggs to an ice bath and let them cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
Carefully remove the yolks from the egg whites and place the yolks in a medium mixing bowl. Arrange the egg white halves evenly in the prepared casserole dish.
Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the yolks. Mix until well combined.
In a separate small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and milk until smooth. Fold this mixture into the yolk mixture, along with the shredded cheddar cheese.
Spoon or pipe the yolk filling back into the egg white halves in the casserole dish, spreading any extra filling evenly across the top.
In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with the melted butter until evenly coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the casserole.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh chopped chives, if desired.
