Place butter and half the shaved truffle in the bowl of a food processor, pulse until incorporated. Place truffle butter on a length of cling wrap and roll up into a log. Refrigerate until required. Preheat oven to 180C. Line four dishes with 2 tbsp truffle butter and break two eggs into each. Add 2 tbsp cream to each, sprinkle with parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Place in oven for 10-15 minutes until eggs are cooked but yolks still runny. Add remaining shaved truffle on top and serve with toast.
