Whip the cream to stiff peaks and swirl it on top of the custard with
the back of a spoon or a small offset spatula. Make sure your
chocolate is at room temperature or slightly warmer (not to the
point of melting; you just want it to grate easily and into lovely little
swirls). Using a vegetable peeler, shave chocolate curls onto the
top of the pie to taste. Refrigerate or serve immediately.
OPTION!
Fry 3 strips of bacon until very crispy. Crumble and sprinkle the
bacon over pie just before serving.
