ANN PORTER'S DEVILED EGGS

INGREDIENTS:

8 eggs                                                         1 tablespoon sweet pickles, chopped
1/2 teaspoon sugar                                      Salt to taste
2 1/2 tablespoons Duke's Mayonnaise      Pepper to taste


Boil eggs until done.  Remove eggs shells and slice eggs long way. Take out egg yokes and place into a mixing bowl.  Add sweet pickles, sugar, pepper, salt and mayonnaise and mix thoroughly.  If mixture too stiff, add a little vinegar from the pickles.  Spoon egg yoke mixture back onto each egg white and sprinkle with paprika for presentation.  Also, if mixture is too thin or loose add a little instant mashed potatoes to stiffen the mixture up.

Note:
This deviled egg recipe has been made by "Mama" for over 50 years. It is one of those recipes this is worth passing down through the family and it used by my bride "Tweet" and both our daughters, Laura and Lisa is using it also. My brother Allen and Sister Sue Pettigrew continues to use it too.
