 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/2  cup           unsalted butter
      3/4  cup           sugar
    2      ounces        unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
    1      teaspoon      vanilla
    2                    eggs
                         Shell
    1 1/2  cups          crushed chocolate wafer cookies
                         (oreo cookies with cream centers removed w
    6      tablespoons   butter, melted
 
 In mixer bowl, cream butter, gradually add sugar, creaming till light.
 Blend in chocolate and vanilla.  Add eggs, one at a time, beating 3
 minutes after each addition, on medium speed of electric mixer.  Turn
 into pie shell.  Chill several hours.
 
 Pie shell:
 
 Use oreo cookies with cream centers scraped off (or chocolate wafer cookies,
 but I like oreos the best.) Combine cups crushed cookie crumbs with melted
 butter.  Press into 8-inch or 9-inch pie plate (I use a glass one).  Bake at
 375 F for 10 minutes and then let cool completely before filling (I often make
 the shell one day and the filling the next - just cover shell with plastic
 wrap after it has cooled to keep it fresh till you fill it.)
