A very old recipe from my files. Haven't made this in years. And if you're one of those people (like me) who doesn't enjoy making pie crust, guess what? This pie has no crust! How great is that?

How to Make ELLEN'S CHOCOLATE CHEESE PIE

Step-by-Step

In a small bowl or measuring cup, melt the chocolate in microwave; let cool.
Set out the cream cheese to soften at room temperature.
In a large bowl, add sugar to the cream cheese, blending well.
Beat in eggs, one at a time, mixing well. Add vanilla.
Measure 2 Cups of cheese mixture in a separate bowl and fold in chocolate.
Add lemon juice to remaining cheese mixture and pour into well-buttered 10-inch pie pan. Top with the chocolate mixture.
Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Cool on wire rack and then chill.
May garnish with whipped topping and chocolate curls.
