Too cute to eat! I have been wanting to make these for a long time and I'm glad that I finally did. These are easier to make than they look..... just boil 2 or 3 extra eggs in case of any egg "casualties". I made these as written, just a little less curry powder (for the kids). You could use your favorite deviled egg recipe and just make the filling with a tad less mayo than usual so the it's will stand up. These will be the hit of any spring/easter table. Kids think they're cute, too. Thanx for sharing. These will appear every spring at my house.2Reply
