Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Prepare pie crust as directed on package for one crust baked shell using 9-inch pie pan. Bake at 450 for 9 to 11 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 30 minutes or until completely cooled.

Melt chocolate in small saucepan over low heat; cool. In small bowl, beat ¾ cup butter until fluffy. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add cooled chocolate and vanilla; blend well.

Melt white chocolate in a small pan over low heat; cool. In a small bowl beat ¼ cup butter until fluffy. Add cooled white chocolate and blend well. Add egg product and beat well..at least 3 minutes. Set aside.

Add egg product to the dark chocolate mixture, ¼ cup of egg product at a time, beating at high speed 2 minutes after each addition. Beat until mixture is smooth and fluffy. Pour into cooled baked shell.

With a teaspoon, drop dollops of white chocolate mixture in a circular pattern on top of the chocolate filling. Using a knife, spiral the white chocolate mixture through the chocolate filling. Then, using a flat spatula, smooth the top over. Then, drop a few more smaller dollops of the vanilla mixture and using the spatula, make wave a wave like pattern with the white chocolate.
