Description
A rich and creamy Keto Chocolate Silk Pie that is perfect for satisfying your dessert cravings while staying within your keto diet.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ cup granulated erythritol or your favorite keto sweetener
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered erythritol or your favorite keto sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 ounces sugar-free dark chocolate, melted and cooled
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, cocoa powder, granulated erythritol, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture resembles a crumbly dough.
- Firmly press this mixture into a 9-inch pie pan, ensuring an even layer across the bottom and up the sides.
- Bake the crust for about 10-12 minutes, then take it out of the oven and allow it to cool completely.
- While the crust is cooling, whip the heavy cream in a separate bowl until soft peaks form.
- In another bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with powdered erythritol until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
- Gradually add in the melted chocolate and the remaining vanilla extract, stirring until everything is well combined.
- Carefully fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture, ensuring a light and airy texture without deflating the cream.
- Once the crust has cooled, pour the luscious chocolate filling into it, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Place the pie in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours to allow it to set properly before serving.
Notes
- Feel free to top your pie with extra whipped cream or sprinkle some shaved sugar-free chocolate on top for an elegant finish.
- For an extra depth of flavor, consider adding a pinch of sea salt to the chocolate mixture.
- If you prefer, you can swap the almond flour for coconut flour, but remember to use only ½ cup as it absorbs more moisture.
