Chocolate lovers really go for this pie. The filling is not too sweet, making a nice complement to the sweet meringue shell. Some family members request this pie for their birthday instead of cake!

This pie turned out deliciously, even after I forgot and left the crust on the counter for 5 hours! The finished result is so much more attractive than the photo and it was delicious! Even my dessert-hating husband ate seconds! Going to make it for my family's beach trip next week.
