Heat oven to 425 degrees. In small saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate
chips with 2 tablespoons butter with 2/3 cup sugar until light and fluffy.
Add almonds, 1 egg, egg yolk and melted chocolate; blend well. Spread
mixture evenly over bottom of pie crust-lined pan. To make lattice top, cut
remaining crust into 1/2-inch strips. Arrange strips in lattice design over
chocolate mixture. Trim edges and seal. In small bowl, beat egg white
until foamy; grently brush over lattice. Bake at 425 degrees for 10
minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Bake an additional 30 to
35 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Cover edge of pie crust with
strips of foil after 15 to 20 minutes of baking to avoid excessive
browning. Cool; remove sides of pan. In blender container or food processor
bowl with metal blade, blend raspberries at highest speed until smooth.
Press through strainer to remove seeds; discard seeds. In small saucepan,

constantly. Cool. Garnish pie with whipped cream, chocolate curls and
whole raspberries. Serve with raspberry sauce. Store in refrigerator. 10 to
