Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Place the pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set it aside.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 20-30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth. Let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the cream cheese mixture, beating on low speed after each addition until fully incorporated.
Take half of the cream cheese mixture and fold it into the melted chocolate. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pie crust as the first layer.
To the remaining cream cheese mixture, add the pumpkin puree, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, flour, and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
Gently pour the pumpkin mixture over the chocolate layer in the pie crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is just set and has a slight jiggle when gently shaken.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight to allow it to fully set.
Before serving, optionally top the pie with whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence. Slice and enjoy!
