Chocolate Lover's Cheesepie

3 pkg. (8 oz. each) cream cheese, softened
3/4 C. sugar
3 eggs
1 t. vanilla
2 C. (12 oz.) mini semi-sweet chips, divided
1- 9 ounce packaged graham cracker crust
2 T. whipping cream

Beat cream cheese & sugar in a large bowl until well-blended. Add eggs & vanilla; beat well. Stir in 1-2/3 C. chocolate chips; pour into crust. Bake at 450° for 10 minutes. Without opening the door, reduce oven temperature to 250°; continue baking for 30 minutes or just until set. Remove from oven to wire rack; cool completely. Cover; refrigerate until thoroughly chilled.

Place the remaining 1/3 C. chips & the whipping cream into a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at high 20-30 seconds, or just until chips are melted and mixture is smooth when stirred. Cool slightly; spread over top of cheesepie. Refrigerate 15 minutes or  until topping is set. Cover; refrigerate leftover pie. Yield: 10 servings
