Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the heavy cream, kosher salt, and black pepper. Whisk well until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Chop the lox into small bite-sized pieces and set aside. Ensure the cream cheese is cubed and also set aside.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and allow it to melt, coating the bottom of the pan.
Once the butter is melted and slightly foamy, pour in the whisked eggs. Let them sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds until they begin to set around the edges.
Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center, forming soft curds. Continue this motion, letting the uncooked egg flow to the hot surface of the pan.
When the eggs are about halfway cooked but still creamy, gently fold in the chopped lox and cream cheese cubes. Cook for an additional 1–2 minutes, folding the mixture carefully to distribute the lox and cream cheese without breaking up the eggs too much.
Remove the pan from heat while the eggs are still slightly underdone (they will continue to cook from residual heat). Sprinkle chopped chives over the top for a fresh, herby finish.
Serve the lox and cream cheese scrambled eggs immediately on a warm plate. They pair beautifully with toasted bagels or crusty bread.
