Steps:
- Place the chocolate wafers in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until finely ground. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add melted butter, and stir until well combined. Press into an 8-inch springform pan, evenly coating the bottom and lower half of the sides. Cover pan with plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
- Pour the milk in a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin over the milk, and let soften for 5 minutes. Place the cream and 2 tablespoons sugar in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add gelatin mixture, and stir to combine. Remove from heat. Add chocolate and vanilla; cover, and let stand for 3 minutes. Stir until thoroughly combined.
- Pass mixture through a fine sieve into prepared cookie crust; leave behind any undissolved chocolate to prevent filling from becoming grainy. Return filled crust to refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight.
- Place the egg whites and remaining 3/4 cup sugar in the heat-proof bowl of an electric mixer, and place over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir constantly until the egg whites are warm to the touch and the sugar is completely dissolved, about 3 minutes. Attach the bowl to the mixer, and use the whisk attachment to beat egg whites, on medium, until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Raise speed to high, and beat until stiff and glossy but not dry, about 1 1/2 minutes.
- Remove pie from refrigerator. Using a rubber spatula, drop meringue on top, lifting to create tall peaks. Use a kitchen blowtorch to brown top of meringue peaks, or place under a broiler, watching carefully since it will brown very quickly.
- Chill the pie in the refrigerator, and serve cold.
