Note

Ensure the pie is completely cool before slicing to prevent it from breaking apart. The filling will continue to set as it cools.

For a richer flavor, you can substitute the unsweetened chocolate with high-quality dark chocolate chips, though the texture may vary slightly.

Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Bring to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
