- Roll out between two pieces of plastic wrap.
- In a grease pie pan, place your pie crust, carefully. Trim the edges to fit and fix any tears. Poke holes in the bottom and sides. Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until done. If edges get too brown, cover with the edges with foil.
- When cooked, remove from oven and let cool.
- In a mixer beat your heavy cream until it starts to thicken. Add 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum, 2 teaspoons of vanilla, and 3/4 cup of powdered sweetener.
- When thick, like whipped cream, remove to a small to medium bowl.
- Add cream cheese, cocoa powder, and butter to the bowl. And beat until combined and no lumps remain.
- Add the cream mixture back to the mixing bowl. Mix until combined. Taste and add more sweetener if desired.
- Carefully into your baked and cooled pie shell. Smooth the top.
- In a clean mixing bowl add the 3/4 cup of heavy cream and beat until thickened. Add xanthan gum, vanilla, and sweetener. Beat until thickened and pipeable. Top with shredded chocolate.
- You can eat this right away. Store in the fridge.
