Instructions: Crust: Mix all ingredients thoroughly. Press firmly into a 9" pie pan. Chill until firm.

Filling: Melt chocolate chips over hot, not boiling water; cool about 10 minutes. Blend cream cheese, 1/2 cup brown sugar, salt, and vanilla. Beat in egg yolks, one at a time. Beat in cooled chocolate; blend well. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually add remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar. Fold in whipped cream. Pour into chilled crust, reserving 1/4 of mixture for decorating. Chill until filling sets slightly. With tapered spoon, drop reserved mixture in mounds over top of pie. Chill until firm. Decorate with rosettes of whipped cream and shaved semi-sweet chocolate.
