Start by chopping 6-8 hard-boiled eggs into large dice.

In a pan, melt 1 stick of butter over medium-high heat.

Add 1/4 cup of flour to the melted butter and whisk to combine.

Cook the flour and butter mixture until it turns a light tan color, ensuring the raw flour is cooked off.

Add onion powder and a teaspoon of granulated chicken bouillon to the mixture and stir.

Slowly add 1 cup of milk to the pan, incorporating it into the flour and butter mixture.

Add 3/4 cup of heavy whipping cream to the mixture and stir until combined.

Check the sauce's thickness by running a finger through it; if it holds its shape, it's ready.

Adjust the flavor with additional salt and black pepper to taste.

Gently fold in the chopped hard-boiled eggs into the sauce.

Add parsley to the mixture and stir to combine.

Prepare buttered toast points and ladle the creamed egg mixture over the toast.
