Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit 10–12 minutes. Drain and transfer to ice water to cool. Peel eggs.

Cut eggs in half lengthwise and remove yolks. In a bowl, mash yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper, and vinegar until smooth and creamy.
Step 3: Pipe the “Tree”
Use a piping bag or plastic bag with the tip cut off to pipe the yolk mixture into each egg white half, forming a small triangle to resemble a Christmas tree.
Step 4: Decorate
Sprinkle with chopped chives or parsley for greenery. Add small pimento strips or red bell pepper pieces as ornaments. Optional: sprinkle lightly with paprika for color.
Step 5: Serve
Arrange on a platter and serve chilled as a festive holiday appetizer.
