Carefully cut the tops off the chocolate Easter eggs using a sharp knife, leaving enough space to fill the eggs.
Gently scoop out any excess chocolate from the inside of the eggs with a small spoon to create more room for the filling. Set the eggs aside in an egg carton or a stable surface to keep them upright.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
Stir in the lemon juice to enhance the tangy flavor of the cheesecake filling.
If creating a 'yolk' effect, set aside 2 tablespoons of the cheesecake filling in a small bowl. Add the yellow food coloring to the reserved filling and mix well.
Using a piping bag or small spoon, fill each chocolate egg halfway with the cheesecake mixture. Sprinkle a thin layer of crushed biscuits or graham crackers on top for texture.
Continue filling the eggs with more cheesecake mixture until just below the rim. If using the yellow 'yolk,' add a dollop in the center of each filled egg to mimic an egg yolk.
Chill the filled eggs in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set.
Serve chilled and enjoy this whimsical Easter treat!
