French Silk Chocolate Pie

 Arietta Kincaid says:
I think the recipe means to say, "Don't use margarine."

This is a dependable pie found on several websites, with variations in how much butter, chocolate and sugar is used. I tend to like a milder chocolate flavor--two ounces--but a friend uses almost four ounces of chocolate and thinks that's about right. Too much for me!
