Ingredients You’ll Need
Here’s what you need for these deviled eggs. I use fresh Ohio eggs from local farmers for that authentic fair vibe.
- 6 large Ohio eggs, hard-boiled
- ¼ cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1 tbsp crumbled gluten-free shortbread cookies
I use a KitchenAid stand mixer for a smooth filling, but a hand mixer or fork works too. (Affiliate link; I may earn a small commission.) Discover Ohio’s fresh eggs at OhioEggs.com.

Tips for Nailing This Recipe
Here’s what I learned to make these eggs perfect:
- Use room-temperature cream cheese for a silky filling.
- Boil eggs a day ahead—they peel easier.
- Add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness (my first batch was too sweet without it!).
Fun Ways to Switch It Up
I love tweaking flavors—here are twists I tried:
- Lighter: Use Greek yogurt instead of cream cheese for a tangy kick.
- Nutty: Add 1 tbsp peanut butter for a cookie-dough vibe my kids loved.
- Spicy: Sprinkle a pinch of cayenne for a sweet-spicy edge.
The classic version matches the Ohio Fair’s 2025 recipe, but these twists are party hits!
Storing Your Deviled Eggs
- Store: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, with parchment paper between layers.
- Serve: Best chilled, but let sit out for 10 minutes if you like.
- Don’t Freeze: Egg whites get rubbery, so skip the freezer.
I prep the filling a day ahead to save time for parties.
