eggs - butter - Dijon mustard mayonnaise - smoked paprika chives - hot sauce

Mash the yolks with a fork. Add mayonnaise, softened butter, dijon mustard, hot sauce, black pepper, and chopped chives. Stir well with a silicone spatula to combine.

Fill each egg white with about 2 teaspoons of the egg mixture (it should overflow). Right before serving, garnish with a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and sliced chives.
