This was so easy, and tasted amazing. It looks like a complicated and fancy dessert. I've made it at least 3 times for the holidays, and people just gobble it up. I use the chocolate from Trader Joe's.

Super easy, absolutely delicious. I couldn't find chocolate pie crust, but I used normal sweet shortcrust instead, worked out beautifully all the same. Absolutely delicious recipe.
