  1. Hard boil the eggs, then peel and slice them in half lengthwise.
  2. Scoop out the yolks and mash them in a bowl.
  3. Mix in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, horseradish, and chives.
  4. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Spoon or pipe the mixture back into the egg whites.
  6. Garnish with paprika and extra chives if desired.
