Instructions

Hard-boil the eggs using your preferred method (boiling, steaming, or Instant Pot).
Peel and cut each egg in half lengthwise.
Carefully remove the yolks by pressing from the back of the egg to avoid tearing the white.
Mash the yolks with the cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth.
Mix in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, stirring until fully combined.
Chill the mixture for 10–15 minutes to firm it up before filling the eggs.
Transfer the yolk mixture into a piping bag (or a large resealable bag with a corner cut off).
Pipe the filling into each half of the egg white.
Garnish with small sprigs of sage, thyme, or finely minced chives.
