Deviled Egg Dip
Ingredients to make this Deviled Egg Dip
-
Cooking spray
-
8 large eggs
-
½ cup mayonnaise
-
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
-
1 tablespoon mustard
-
¼ cup pickle relish
-
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
-
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
-
3 green onions, thinly sliced
-
Paprika, for garnish
-
¼ cup olives with pimientos, chopped
Pickle relish
Cream cheese
Egg
Mayonnaise
Directions
Step 1: Boil the Eggs
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it reaches a boil, turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let the eggs sit for about 10–12 minutes.
Drain the hot water and immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Let them cool completely before peeling. Chop the peeled eggs into small pieces and set aside.
Step 2: Create the Creamy Base
In a large mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and well blended. The texture should be creamy without lumps.
Step 3: Add the Flavor
Stir in the mustard, pickle relish, Worcestershire sauce, and Cajun seasoning. Mix thoroughly so the flavors are evenly distributed.
Step 4: Combine Everything
Fold the chopped eggs, sliced green onions, and chopped olives into the mixture. Stir gently. If you prefer a smoother dip, mash some of the eggs as you mix. If you like more texture, keep it slightly chunky.
Step 5: Chill
Spoon the mixture into a serving dish. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour. This resting time helps the flavors blend together and makes the dip even better.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Right before serving, lightly sprinkle paprika over the top for color and a subtle smoky finish. Serve chilled with crackers, toasted bread slices, or fresh-cut vegetables.
