Step 8 –Cut the eggs in half lengthwise.
Step 9 –Scoop out the egg yolks and place them in a medium bowl.
Step 10 –Add the sour cream, the salt, the black pepper, the garlic powder, and the onion powder to the egg yolks and stir until they are fully combined and smooth.

Step 12 –Pipe the yolk mixture into the cavities of each of the egg white halves.
Step 13 –Sprinkle the deviled eggs with the cooked bacon pieces, the crushed potato chips, the sharp cheddar cheese, and the chives.
