Ingredients
6 large eggs
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon mustard
1/2 teaspoon paprika
12 mozzarella balls (bocconcini)
12 cherry tomatoes
Fresh basil leaves
Balsamic glaze
Instructions
Prepare the Eggs: Hard boil the eggs by placing them in a pot and covering with cold water. Bring to a boil, then let simmer for 9-12 minutes. Once done, cool the eggs in cold water.
Make the Deviled Filling: Peel the cooled eggs and slice them in half. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Add mayonnaise, mustard, and paprika, and mix until smooth.
Assemble the Mummy Deviled Eggs: Spoon the yolk mixture back into the egg whites. Use a piping bag or a spoon for a neat presentation. For the eyes, use small pieces of olives.
Prepare the Vampire Caprese: On a skewer, stack a mozzarella ball, a basil leaf, and a cherry tomato. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
Drizzle and Serve: Arrange the skewers on a platter and drizzle balsamic glaze over the top for a hint of sweetness.
Notes
Perfectly boil eggs to avoid green yolks and use fresh ingredients for best flavor.
