Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Melt the butter and pour it over the crumb mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan, covering the bottom and sides evenly to form a crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semisweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and completely melted. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together with a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Add the melted chocolate and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
Gradually pour in the heavy cream while beating the mixture at medium speed. Continue beating until the filling is light, fluffy, and well combined.
Gently fold the whipped topping into the chocolate mixture using a spatula until no streaks remain.
Pour the filling evenly into the prepared crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until well chilled and set.
Before serving, garnish the pie with chocolate shavings, if desired. Slice and enjoy!
