🔥 Heat Control Tips

  • Mild: use mostly sweet pepper jelly
  • Medium: sweet & spicy jelly + pinch of cayenne
  • Hot: mix in minced pickled jalapeños or hot pepper jelly

💡 Party Pro Moves

  • Make the filling a day ahead (store separately).
  • Fill eggs 1–2 hours before serving for best texture.
