degrees. Butter a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan or spring form pan.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Add
melted butter and stir until well combined. Press graham mixture evenly
into bottom of pan and partially up sides. Bake 5 minutes to set crust.

mixing bowl. Set aside. In the top of a double boiler set over simmering
water, combine butter and chocolate. Stir until melted and smooth. remove

vanilla and chocolate mixture and mix, beating on low speed, until well
combined. Add dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Pour fudge
layer on top of graham cracker crust. Bake 15-17 minutes or until fudge
layer is almost set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with
moist batter.

For the cream cheese layer, combine cream cheese and sugar and beat with
electric mixer set at medium-low until smooth. Add egg and vanilla and
beat until smooth. Gently spread mixture on top of fudge layer. Return pan
to oven for 15 minutes. Remove pie from oven to cool slightly.

For the chocolate topping, combine milk chocolate and cream in the top of a
double boiler set over simmering water. Stir until melted. With a spoon
