I personally think it would be better in a regular pie crust along with the chocolate spread over the bottom of it and it would be so much better and it would hold the entire recipe without spilling over the edge of the crust ...

Melt chocolate chips with a little bit of vegetable oil. This will keep the chocolate from getting too firm, once cooled.

I would like to try it using (cold) hot fudge sauce on the bottom instead of the chocolate chips. What do ya think? :)
