Ingredients:

Crust
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup butter
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
Filling
1 package cream cheese (8 oz.)
1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
1 each egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3. In a large bowl, with a mixer, beat cream cheese until smooth.  Gradually beat in condensed milk, then egg and vanilla.  Pour over prepared crust.  Sprinkle with reserved ¼ cup crumb mixture.

4. Bake until set, 25-30 minutes.  Cool, then refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours.
