Ingredients

• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
• 2 tablespoons Milk (or Heavy Cream)
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black Pepper
• 1 tablespoon Chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl, and whisk them together with the milk (or heavy cream), salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 3

Once the butter begins to sizzle lightly, reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the pan.

Step 4

Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir them with a spatula, scraping the edges and bottom of the pan as they begin to set.

Step 5

When the eggs are nearly cooked but still slightly runny, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

Step 6

Continue to cook, stirring gently, until the cheese is melted and the eggs are creamy and set to your liking.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the heat immediately to prevent overcooking.

Step 8

Transfer the cheese eggs to serving plates and garnish with chopped chives, if desired.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy!
