###Ingredients###

- Eggs

- Mayonnaise

- Mustard

- Vinegar

- Salt and pepper

- Paprika

- Chives

- Bacon

###Instructions####

1. Boil the Eggs

- Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan.

- Cover the eggs with cold water.

- Bring the water to a boil, then immediately turn off the heat.

- Cover the saucepan and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.

- Transfer the eggs to an ice-water bath to stop them from cooking further.

2. Set up the basket weavers

- Cut off the pointy ends of the eggs just enough so they can stand upright.

- Cut off roughly 2/3 of the egg from the top.

- Be careful while cutting them to ensure they don't crack.

3. Make the Deviled Egg Filling

- In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper to taste.

- Peel the eggs and separate the yolks from the whites.

- Mash the egg yolks with a fork.

- Add the deviled egg filling to the egg yolks and mix well.

4. Assemble the Deviled Egg Baskets

- Spoon the deviled egg filling into the egg white "baskets."

- Cut the bacon strips in half and weave them in and out of the basket edges to create a lattice pattern.

- Trim any excess bacon.

- Sprinkle the baskets with paprika and chopped chives.

5. Serve

- Serve the deviled egg baskets immediately or chill them for later.
