Chocolate Almond Pie image

A very rich, no-bake pie. Easily prepared in a food processor. It is best to make this pie several hours in advance, I prefer to chill it overnight. Add the whipped cream and garnish just before serving.

This pie was delicious! The chocolate filling was rich and creamy, and the almond crust was the perfect complement. I would definitely make this pie again.
