Instructions
In a microwave-safe dish, melt butter and five chocolate squares. Cool for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, line a 9-in. fluted tart pan with removable bottom with pastry. Line pastry with a double thickness of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
Bake at 450° for 5 minutes.
Remove the foil; bake 3 minutes longer. Reduce heat to 350°.
In a small bowl, beat eggs, sugar and orange extract until thickened, about 4 minutes. Stir in cooled chocolate mixture. Beat in flour; mix well.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with waxed paper; set aside. Melt remaining chocolate.
Pour melted chocolate into a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag; cut a small hole in a corner of bag. Pipe eight to 10 small hearts onto the waxed paper. Refrigerate until set.
Spread whipped topping on pie; garnish with chocolate hearts and orange peel if desired. Refrigerate leftovers.

It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.
