Peel hard-boiled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks and place in a small bowl, along with mayo, mustard, onion powder, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper (if using).
Use a fork to mash the mixture together. Place the egg white halves hole-side up on a serving plate and spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the holes.
Sprinkle with paprika and refrigerate until ready to serve.
