Boil the eggs in boiling water for 9.5 to 10 minutes.

Remove the eggs from boiling water and cool them in ice water to make peeling easier.

Peel the eggs carefully to avoid breaking the whites.

Use a strainer to smash the yolks until they are smooth and creamy.

Add 2 teaspoons of country mustard, 1 clove of finely chopped garlic, 1 ounce of diced baked ham, and optional red chili pepper to the yolks.

Add 2 teaspoons of chives, 1 tablespoon of creme fraiche or sour cream, 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, a dash of hot sauce, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to the yolk mixture.

Mix all the ingredients until creamy and smooth, adjusting seasoning to taste.

Transfer the yolk mixture into a pastry bag for filling the egg whites.

Fill the egg whites with the yolk mixture using the pastry bag.

Prepare prosciutto chips by placing slices between parchment paper and baking at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

Top the filled eggs with prosciutto chips and additional chives for garnish.
