No more than 15 minutes. There's no need to boil them to death; if you do, sometimes the yolks turn an unappetizing greenish color. After removing them from the heat, put them in cold water to stop further cooking from the retained heat. This will also make them easier to shell, if you remove the shells right away.
An egg would boil for about 5 to 7 minutes to reach the hard boiled stage.

∙ 13y agoPlace the eggs in a saucepan in a single layer. Cover with cold water to at least 1-inch above the tops of the eggs. Bring to a rolling boil, boil for a few minutes and turn off the burner. Let sit 10 or more minutes. The eggs will continue to cook as they sit. Pour off the hot water and immediately run cold water over the eggs until they are cool. This makes the eggs easier to peel.
You can also get the water to a rolling boil, turn the burner on low and let them simmer for 15 - 20 minutes, depending on how large the eggs are.

How long does it take to let cool after cooking hard boiled eggs to food coler them?
You can put them right into the fridge. It'll make the refrigerator work a little harder to cool them off, but there's no food-related reason not to. This assumes you're leaving them in the shell. If you're peeling first, it always helps to put them in cold water first anyway.
Will hard boiled eggs be easier to peel after sitting in the refrigerator overnight?
Absolutely. If you want to use them right away, then put them in cold water until you can handle them long enough to peel them (about 10 or 15 minutes). But if you don't need them right away, they can be put in the fridge for a few days and peeled anytime. You can boil up a few and then eat them as hard-boiled eggs during the week. Or boil up eggs ahead of time to make into deviled eggs the next day.
