Eat This! Chipotle Bacon Cheddar Deviled Eggs

Photo and Recipe: Butter Your Biscuit

I had quite a few left-over eggs from Easter and decided to make one of my favorites recipes, Chipotle Cheddar Bacon Deviled Eggs. I followed the recipe from the blog Butter Your Biscuit, but tweaked it to make it more to my taste.

The chipotle adds the perfect amount of smokiness, and a little spicy kick! I think you'll love these!

Prep Time 15 minutes Cook Time 20 minutes Total Time 35 minutes

INGREDIENTS

• 12 large eggs

• 1 c. mayonnaise

• 2 tea. smoked chipotle

• Pinch salt and pepper

• 5 pieces bacon, cooked and chopped

• 1 c. cheddar cheese, shredded

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Put eggs in boiling water, remove from heat, and place a lid on the pot. Let it sit for 20 minutes. Drain the hot water and run the eggs under cold water.

2. Peel eggs and slice them lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks and place them in a small bowl. Using the back of a fork, mash the yolks until they are crumbled.

3. Add in the mayonnaise, bacon, cheese, smoked chipotle, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined.

4. Put the mixture into a Ziplock baggie, pushing all the filling into the corner. Snip the corner off, squeezing the filling into the eggs (I missed this step – obviously they are a little messy).

5. Top with bacon and parsley (I didn't have parsley so I skipped this step. I topped with smoked chipotle).

I have made these for parties several times and y'all: It is always quite the crowd pleaser. Give them a try and please let me know what you think!

Much love,
