Amazing pie! I made it for my mother in laws birthday and she said not to lose the recipe. It is very rich and super chocolaty. I didn't have anything to make the chocolate crust so I made a regular graham cracker crust. I think it would be to much with a chocolate crust (I can't believe I said that). I will try this with milk chocolate chips because my son found it to be to intense. If that goes well I can see myself making the filling in cups for a class party. This is defiantly going to be a family favorite.

I made this on 11/26/08 and kept it frozen until 11/28/08. And as for the rating, my SO is the one that gave it 4 *'s. I did however eat some of the filling that was left in the bowl ;) and it was so rich. Since I couldn't find a chocolate pie crust, a regular graham cracker crust was used. My SO really liked this, and in my opinion that makes this recipe worth repeating. Thanks for posting, and "Keep Smiling :)"

This was good and easy to make, but my husband & I both thought it was too sweet. Next time I will leave out the powdered sugar & see how we like it. Also, I think I overwhipped the cream a bit and the consistancy was a little weird (almost dry). Totally my fault, but be sure to watch it!I used a tart pan and an oreo cookie crust.
