My Mom's Deviled Eggs

My Mom taught me how to make these, her secret was the sauce. She used it for these as well as coleslaw and potato salad. I think it is the sugar that makes the eggs slightly sweet. This last Easter, my sister-in-law and I both made deviled eggs and I have to say, that mine won! I don't think I ever have had sweet ones anywhere else. And here is my secret....I eat 2 eggs worth of the whites, while I am making them that makes the other eggs really full.

1. Boil eggs to hard-boiled stage.
2. Rinse in cold water, cool and peel.
3. While eggs are boiling, make sauce.
4. Combine mayo, sugar and mustard and stir until smooth.
5. Refrigerate, and don't be worried if sauce still has sugar crystals.
6. When ready to assemble, slice eggs in half, scoop out yolks and mash.
7. Take sauce out of fridge and stir again.
8. Now it should be smooth.
