For an even richer flavor, use high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of 70% or higher. Ensure the melted chocolate is cooled slightly before adding it to the butter and sugar mixture to prevent the butter from melting. Beating the eggs for the full 5 minutes after each addition is essential for achieving the signature silky texture of this pie. Garnish each slice with freshly whipped cream and chocolate shavings or curls for an elegant presentation.
