    Why this recipe is just so good...

    • Deep dark chocolate keto friendly pie is a special sugar free dessert. Every bite is an indulgent treat.
    • It is a beautiful dessert to serve at a special dinner or Holiday.
    • Fancy doesn't always mean complicated. This pie may look complicated but is actually very easy. Other than the crust, it is a no-bake pie recipe. You can even prep parts of the recipe ahead or as time allows. Make the crust, filling or whipped cream and put it together when you are ready.

    Recipe Ingredients

    *Here is a brief list of recipe ingredients for the sugar free chocolate pie. See full recipe below.*

    • heavy cream
    • powdered sugar substitute
    • cream cheese
    • sugar free chocolate chips
    • butter
    • dark cocoa powder

    Ingredient Notes

    Espresso powder, chocolate extract.

    These products are optional, but I like to add them whenever I make a chocolate dessert. A small amount of espresso powder and chocolate extract add richness and enhanced chocolate flavor!

    How to make Sugar Free Chocolate Pie

    Listed below are the step by step directions for this recipe:

    Sugar Free Pie Crust

    • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9" pie plate with non-stick baking spray.
    • Combine the almond flour, sugar substitute, cocoa powder, salt and butter.
    • Press the crust mixture onto bottom antd side of pie plate. Poke holes in it with tines of fork.
    • Bake for 8-10 minutes .

    Sugar Free Chocolate Ganache

    Melted chocolate in glass bowl.

    Make the ganache- melt the chocolate chips and stir in the heavy cream until smooth. Pour over the pie crust. While making the whipped cream and mousse filling, refrigerate the crust to allow ganache to harden.

    Sugar Free whipped cream

    • Beat whipping cream and powered sweetener until stiff peaks form on the beaters. Divide cream into 2 ½ cups for filling and 1 ½ cups for topping.

    • Beat the softened cream cheese, sweetener, cocoa powder, espresso powder and extract, if using.
    • Stir in the melted chocolate and butter. Fold in whipped cream for the filling. Pour into the pie crust, smooth top. Top with remaining whipped cream.

    Baking Tips

    • Be sure to use cold heavy cream for the fluffiest whipped cream. I usually put the container in the back of the fridge. Also, you can put the beaters and bowl in the freezer for 30 minutes before you make the whipped cream.
    • Lightly fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture so it stays fluffy and doesn't deflate.
    • To make serving the pie a bit easier, run your knife under hot water, carefully wipe dry and cut the pie.

    FAQ

    Should you poke holes in the bottom of pie crust?

    Yes, use the tines of a fork and poke 7 or 8 holes in the bottom of the crust. This will help keep the bottom crust flat and avoid air bubbles.

    How to keep whipped cream from getting watery?

    The whipped cream won't be watery when it is mixed into the mousse filling of the pie. It will keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. The whipped cream on top of the pie sometimes may seem a bit watery after a few days.
    You can add a bit of unflavored gelatin to the whipped cream which will be a stabilizer.
    Mix ½ teaspoon into 1 tablespoon cold water, stir and heat for 10 seconds. Cool a few minutes then slowly stir into the heavy cream as you are beating it.

    Description

    This Low Carb Triple Chocolate Pie is for the serious chocolate lovers! It has a chocolate crust, layered with a rich dark chocolate ganache and topped with a creamy chocolate mousse. This pie is a totally extravagant and unbelievably decadent sugar free dessert. 


    Ingredients

    Units Scale

    Chocolate Crust

    • 2 cups almond flour, sifted
    • ⅓ cup sugar substitute
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    • ⅓ cup dark cocoa
    • 6 tablespoons melted butter

    Ganache

    • 4 ounces keto chocolate chips*
    • ⅓ cup heavy cream

    Whipped Cream

    • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
    • ¼ cup powdered sugar substitute

    Mousse Filling

    • ⅓ cup dark cocoa powder
    • 4 ounce cream cheese
    • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
    • ⅓ cup sugar free chocolate chips ( I used Lily's)
    • 1 ¼ cups powdered sugar substitute
    • 2 ½ cups whipped cream (remaining whipped cream is for topping)
    • 1 teaspoon chocolate extract (optional)
    • ½ teaspoon espresso powder (optional)

    Instructions

    Crust

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F.  Lightly spray with non-stick baking spray.  Stir together the dry ingredients in a bowl.  Stir in the melted butter.  Press into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.  Use fingers or bottom of glass or measuring cup to press down well onto plate.  Use tines of fork to poke about 7-8  holes in crust.  Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly browned.  Set aside to cool.

    Ganache

    1. Measure chocolate chips and cream into a glass bowl and melt in 30 second increments in the microwave. Or you can melt chocolate over  a double boiler and stir in the cream separately.
    2. Spread on the bottom of crust, let cool for 5 minutes and then refrigerate to fully cool and harden.

    Whipped Cream

    1. Pour cold heavy cream into cold mixing bowl and beat for 1 minute.  Add sweetener and continue beating until the cream has stiff peaks.*  (2  ½ cups will be for filling, 1 ½ cups for topping.)

    Mousse Filling

    1. In a glass bowl, heat the butter and chocolate chips  in a microwave in 30 second increments, or over a double boiler, until melted.  
    2. Combine the cream cheese, sweetener, cocoa powder, espresso powder and extract, if using,  in a mixing bowl and beat until smooth.  (about 1 minute) Pour the melted chocolate into bowl and mix for 30 seconds.
    3. Spoon in the 2 ½ cups whipped cream into the chocolate mixture and fold in by hand.  Use a spatula to combine the whipped cream, turning bowl to completely mix together. But don't over mix it.
    4. Pour the mousse filling over the hardened ganache pie crust.  Smooth the top.
    5. Using the remaining 1 ½ cups whipped cream, either put the whipped cream on top and smooth the topping.  Or pipe the whipped cream around the edges (as pictured).
    6. Optional - Decorate with shaved sugar free chocolate.

    Notes

    *You will know the whipped cream is done when it doesn't drip off the beaters when you turn them upside down.  Don't over beat or it will look like the consistency of butter.

    *2 cups of heavy cream will make 4 cups of whipped cream.

    *The pie can be frozen whole or in individual slices wrapped in plastic and stored in an airtight container for up to one month. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator.
