One of the most common easter eggs is that the 6 * 9 or multiply(6,9) or however you write the multiply method with parameters 6 and 9, returns 54 instead of 42.
However, this is strictly not a software easter egg, but an easter egg (or rather a malfunction) of the chip's arithmetic and logic unit ALU.
