Instructions: CRUST: Preheat oven to 325F. Butter a 9-inch springform pan. In large bowl, mix chocolate cookie crumbs, syrup and sugar, stirring mixture until crumbs are moistened evenly. Transfer crumbs to prepared pan. Use fingers to press crumbs evenly over bottom and 1 inch up the sides of the pan. Bake crust for 6 minutes. Cool crust completely.

SAUCE: In top of double boiler over barely simmering water, or in a microwave following manufacturers directions for melting chocolate, stir chocolate and vegetable oil until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.

LAYERS: Using a metal spatula, spread softened chocolate frozen yogurt over crumb crust. Using a teaspoon, drizzle 3 tablespoons of chocolate sauce evenly over the frozen yogurt. Spread softened strawberry frozen yogurt evenly over chocolate coating. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of chocolate coating in thin, crisscrossing lines over the strawberry yogurt.

Place remaining chocolate sauce in heatproof container. Cover and refrigerate to serve with pie. (The chocolate sauce can be refrigerated up to 3 weeks.)

Cover pie tightly with plastic wrap, then aluminum foil. Freeze at least 6 hours, or up to 2 weeks.

To serve, remove chocolate sauce from refrigerator and warm in microwave or in top of double boiler over barely simmering water. Stir until mixture is melted and pourable.

Remove frozen yogurt pie from freezer 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Dip a dish towel in hot water and wring it dry. Hold hot towel around sides of springform pan for 15 seconds. Release sides of pan. Using a sharp knife, cut frozen yogurt pie into wedges. Pass pitcher of warm chocolate sauce. (Serves 12 to 16)

NOTES : A chocolate crumb crust holds strawberry and chocolate frozen nonfat yogurt, layered with chocolate sauce. At holiday time, garnish each slice of pie with a festive candy cane and pass additional chocolate sauce to pour over slices of frozen yogurt pie.
