Notes
Tips For Success
You need hard-boiled eggs with a firm yolk for this recipe. So try and cook them for about 10-11 minutes.
To cool them fast do it in some iced water, but if you have time then just let them cool down naturally.
Feel free to buy pre-cooked eggs to save time.
To make the eggs look pretty you can pipe the filling on.
If you don’t want to pipe the eggs you can just use a spoon to add the filling back in.
