Number Of Ingredients 13

24 large eggs
1 cup milk (cream, or half and half)
2 & 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup butter ((1 stick))
1 (8-oz) package cream cheese
green onions (or chives, to garnish (optional))
shredded cheddar cheese (to garnish)

Steps:

  • In a blender, add eggs, milk, and all the spices (salt, pepper, garlic, onion, mustard, seasoning salt, cayenne.) Make sure you have a big blender! Mine went over the 4 cup capacity at around 20 eggs and then I was too scared to add more so I just whisked them in. You could of course just skip blending and whisk them all in a bowl. Whatever sounds easier to you!
  • Melt 1/2 cup butter in a 12 inch high-sided skillet over medium heat. When it is nice and hot, pour in the egg mixture. Lower the heat to medium-low. You have to cook eggs sloooow.
  • Use a spatula to occasionally scrape the bottom of the pan. Cook for 10-15 minutes until the eggs are starting to set.
  • Then add the cream cheese that has been cut into chunks. Carefully fold in the cream cheese and let it melt away into your dreamy creamy eggs.
  • When the eggs have cooked (cooked meaning you're ok sneaking a bite) but are still quite wet, add the eggs to a crock pot and turn the crock pot to warm. (If there is no warm setting, the low setting will do.) Put the lid on.
  • Stir the eggs every hour or so. You can keep them warm in the crock pot for about 4-5 hours. If you leave them in too long eventually they will become rubbery, so it's best to eat them within 4-5 hours.
  • When serving, top with cheddar cheese and green onions.
