Chill until mixture begins to thicken. Beat until light. Beat egg whites until frothy; gradually add remaining 1/3 c. sugar, beating until glossy, firm peaks form. Fold into gelatin mixture. Fold in whipped cream and shaved chocolate. Heap filling into cool Pecan Crumb Crust. Chill until firm. Drizzle on Chocolate Topping. Refrigerate or freeze until serving time.Cut in wedges with sharp knife. Makes 6 - 8 servings.

Chocolate Topping:
Heat 1/2 (6oz.) pkg. semisweet chocolate pieces (1/2 c.) and 2 tsp., butter or margarine over hot, not boiling, water, until chocolate is just melted. Remove from heat; add 1 Tb. hot water and stir until smooth. Immediately drizzle over top of pie.
