Ingredients

Directions

  1. Lightly grease a 10-inch spring-form pan with a small amount of mayonnaise.
  2. Peel and mash the hard-boiled eggs in a large bowl until fine.
  3. Mix in enough mayonnaise to bind the eggs, along with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Press the egg mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared spring-form pan to create a base layer.
  5. Sprinkle the chopped scallions evenly over the top of the egg layer.
  6. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sour cream together until completely smooth.
  7. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the scallions, creating a smooth second layer.
  8. Refrigerate the pie for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours, to set the layers.
  9. Place the chilled spring-form pan on a paper towel-lined plate to catch any condensation.
  10. Arrange the black and red caviar on top of the cream cheese layer in an aesthetic design, using wax paper cutouts and toothpicks to guide placement.
  11. Remove the spring-form ring carefully before serving.
  12. Serve immediately with plain water crackers or thin toast points.
