Spooky edible eyes!

Cook up a monster feast with these spooky edible eyeballs!


You will need:
  • Six hard-boiled eggs
  • Mayonnaise
  • A teaspoon of mustard
  • Pinch of salt
  • Green and red food colouring
  • Sliced black olives
  • A toothpick


What to do:

  1. Peel the cooled eggs and slice them in half lengthways.
  2. Now scoop out the yolks and place into a bowl. Then mash them up.
  3. Mix in the mayonnaise, mustard and salt. Now stir in a few drops of green food colouring.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the centre of the egg halves and then a slice of olive on top of each half.
  5. Finally, dip a toothpick into red food colouring and then use it to draw lines on the eggs as shown. Now your eggs look like creepy eyeballs.
