Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Cook asparagus in a large pot of lightly salted boiling water until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain well and set aside.

  3. Scoop yolks out of hard-cooked eggs and transfer to a bowl, mash yolks with a fork.

  4. Mash deviled ham spread, cream, onion, 3/4 teaspoon dry mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon salt into the yolks until thoroughly combined.

  5. Fill cavities in egg halves with the yolk mixture, set deviled eggs aside.

  6. Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and whisk flour into butter until smooth and bubbling.

  7. Whisk in milk, a little at a time, until the sauce is smooth and thickened, reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.

  8. Whisk in Cheddar cheese, 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard powder, salt to taste, and black pepper, stir sauce until cheese is melted and incorporated.

  9. Spread asparagus into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  10. Arrange the deviled eggs on top of asparagus, pour the cheese sauce evenly over the deviled eggs.

  11. Mix crushed corn flakes with 2 tablespoons melted butter in a bowl, sprinkle over the casserole.

  12. Bake in the preheated oven until the sauce bubbles and the topping is browned, about 20 minutes.
