Double Chocolate French Pie

I made this along with a Rum Pumpkin pie for some guests over the weekend. 3/4 of the pumpkin pie was left but this pie vanished. Gone in a few minutes. Very rich dark chocolate flavor and it's very very low in fat which no one could believe. A dieters dream come true. You won't be disappointed.
