Preparation Steps
- Begin by placing six large eggs in a medium saucepan. Cover with cold water, about an inch above the eggs, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl with cold water and ice.
- Transfer the hot eggs to the ice bath using a slotted spoon and let chill for at least 5 minutes.
- Once cooled, gently crack and peel the eggs under running water.
- Slice each egg in half lengthwise, removing the yolks into a mixing bowl.
- To the yolks, add mayo, mustard, salt, pepper, and paprika, mixing until smooth.
- Transfer the yolk mixture into a piping bag and pipe into egg whites.
- Using a knife or toothpick, gently create ridges to enhance the pumpkin appearance.
- Insert chopped chives into the tops of the piped filling to resemble stems.
- Dust with paprika and arrange on a platter. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes
For best results, use eggs that are 7-10 days old to ensure easy peeling. Adjust spices as per taste for a customized flavor.
