Ingredients for Best Darned Scrambled Eggs Ever

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • Water
  • Whipped Cream Cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh Coarse Ground Black Pepper

How to Make Best Darned Scrambled Eggs Ever

  1. Crack eggs into a bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper (start with 1/4 teaspoon of each, adding more to taste).
  2. Add cream cheese, milk, and butter. Whisk vigorously until well combined; the mixture will be slightly lumpy, which is perfectly fine.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of butter to the hot skillet.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed until the bottom is set and lightly golden (about 1-2 minutes).
  5. Gently push the cooked edges toward the center, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue cooking and gently stirring until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist (another 2-3 minutes).
  6. Remove from heat immediately. The residual heat will continue to cook the eggs.
  7. Mound the scrambled eggs onto buttered toast and serve immediately.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
