About This Recipe

Million Dollar Deviled Eggs are just the superior version of the classic deviled eggs.

These are creamier, buttery, and loaded with flavors. A few simple ingredients, and they come together in just 30 minutes.

My version of these million-dollar deviled eggs has an addition of butter apart from the usual ingredients and that makes them different from the classic version.

Serve it as a side dish or an appetiser for your next house party, game night, movie night, pool party, or BBQ.

This make-ahead recipe can be easily doubled or tripled.

Ingredients

Eggs – Use any eggs that you prefer. White, brown, omega 3 fortified, free range, etc, all work great.

For The Filling

To make the creamy and buttery filling, you would need full-fat mayonnaise, butter (salted or unsalted), yellow mustard sauce, drained brine-cured mini gherkins, sugar, salt, black pepper powder, and tabasco sauce.

Butter is the secret ingredient here that does the magic and makes the filling creamy, buttery and velvety. So do not skip it.

To Garnish

Garnish the eggs with paprika, chopped parsley, and sliced mini gherkins. Crushed crispy bacon pieces are also great for topping.

How To Make Million Dollar Devilled Eggs

Hard Boil The Eggs

Place 12 large eggs in a large saucepan and cover them with water.  

Secret Tip – Shake the eggs a little before boiling them. This process will make sure the yolk moves to the center of the egg.

Transfer the pan to stovetop and heat over high heat until the water comes to a rolling boil.

Boil for one minute.

Remove the pan from the heat and immediately cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid.

Allow to sit for 17 minutes and then drain the water. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath and let them sit for 5 minutes.

Peel the eggs and set them aside.

Make The Filling

Slice the boiled eggs in half lengthwise.  

Remove the yolks and transfer them to a small food processor.

Add ¼ cup full-fat mayonnaise, 2 teaspoon yellow mustard sauce, 2 teaspoon chopped gherkins, 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, ⅛ teaspoon salt, ⅛ teaspoon black pepper powder, and ½ teaspoon Tabasco sauce to the processor and blend until everything comes together.

Add 1 tablespoon of melted and cooled butter and blend until combined.

Make The Deviled Eggs

Add the yolk mixture into a piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle.

Note – You can also use a spoon to fill the filling but using a piping bag makes the deviled eggs look prettier.

Pipe the egg yolk mixture into the cavities of the egg whites.

Sprinkle a little paprika, and parsley, and garnish with a small slice of mini gherkin pickle. Enjoy.

Storage Suggestions

Deviled eggs are a great make-ahead appetizer if you are organizing a party or get-together.

Assemble the million-dollar deviled eggs and store them for about a day in the refrigerator, stored in an air-tight container.

You can also store boiled eggs and the filling separately for about 2 days, in the refrigerator in air-tight containers. Assemble at the time of serving.
