1
Beat the Eggs
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add salt and black pepper. If using, add milk for creaminess. Whisk everything together until the yolks and whites are fully combined.

2
Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, swirling it around to coat the pan evenly.
3
Cook the Eggs
Once the butter is foamy but not browned, pour in the beaten eggs. Let them sit without stirring for about 30 seconds until they begin to set around the edges.
4
Scramble
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs from the edges toward the center. Continue to do this until the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes.
5
Add Cheese and Chives (Optional)
If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives over the eggs. Fold them in gently and cook for an additional minute until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully cooked.

6
Plate and Serve
Remove the scrambled eggs from the pan onto a plate. Serve warm, garnished with additional chives if desired.
