 beat at medium-low speed until slightly thickened - about 1 minute.  Add
 vanilla and chocolate mixture and mix, beating on low speed, until well
 combined.  Add dry ingredients and  mix until just combined.  Pour fudge
 layer on top of graham cracker crust.  Bake 15-17 minutes or until fudge
 layer is almost set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with
 moist batter.
 
 For the cream cheese layer, combine cream cheese and sugar and beat with
 electric mixer set at medium-low until smooth.  Add egg and vanilla and beat
 until smooth.  Gently spread mixture on top of fudge layer. Return pan to
 oven for 15 minutes.  Remove pie from oven to cool slightly.
 
 For the chocolate topping, combine milk chocolate and cream in the top of a
 double boiler set over simmering water.  Stir until melted.  With a spoon
