Deluxe Egg Salad

6 hard-boiled eggs
2 tablespoons softened butter
3-ounces softened cream cheese
1 tablespoon mayonnaise (more if needed)
2 tablespoons minced celery
1 teaspoon minced dehydrated onion (or grated fresh onion)
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 - 2 tablespoons dill pickle juice, if desired
Paprika, if desired

Peel the eggs and chop finely.  Add the butter, cream cheese, mayonnaise, celery, onion, sugar, lemon juice, salt and pepper and stir until well combined.  If the mixture is too thick add more mayonnaise and/or the pickle juice.  (I prefer the pickle juice).  Sprinkle with paprika, if desired.  Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

Makes great sandwiches and is also good on crackers.
