Press firmly and evenly against bottom and side of 9 1/2-inch deep-dish glass pie plate or 10-inch regular glass pie plate. Sprinkle with chopped nuts. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until edge appears dry. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
- In 2-quart saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter and the chocolate over low heat, stirring occasionally; remove from heat. In small bowl, mix 1 cup sugar and the cornstarch with wire whisk; stir into chocolate mixture.
- In small bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer on medium speed about 5 minutes or until thick and lemon colored; stir into chocolate mixture. Cook chocolate mixture over medium heat 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until thick and glossy. Stir in vanilla. Cool 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In medium bowl, beat whipping cream with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Fold chocolate mixture into whipped cream. Pour over crust. Cover; freeze about 4 hours or until firm. Remove from freezer; let stand 30 minutes before cutting. Top with whipped cream; sprinkle with almonds. Store covered in freezer.
