Fantastic deviled eggs! The cream makes the filling so creamy and allows the flavor of the egg to shine through. I'll make my deviled eggs this way from now on - thanks for sharing a keeper!

These really are "DE-vine"!! The heavy cream does seem to make them smoother, richer, and more delectable than just the "usual" deviled eggs. I had no fresh herbs to put on top, which I'm sure will make them perfect!! I will use heavy cream from now on- Thanks for sharing!!
