Ingredients
CHOCOLATE COOKIE CRUST
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated erythritol
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1/2 cup black cocoa
- 1 tsp baking powder
MOCHA FILLING
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 cup whipped cream

Instructions
CHOCOLATE COOKIE CRUST
- With a mixer on medium speed, cream butter, then add sweetener and eggs and mix again.
- Add the cocoa and baking powder and mix on slow at first, and then medium speed until combined.
- Add to the bottom of a greased 9” pie dish. Do not place on the sides of pie dish. Withhold ¼ cup of the mix and add to a separate greased baking dish.
- Bake both at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Cool completely. Make crumbs out of the extra dish.
- *For High Altitude or smaller pie dish, add 3-5 minutes of bake time. Keto Chow used a 10" springform pan lined with greased parchment paper to make removal easier.
MOCHA FILLING
- On medium speed, whip cream cheese until it’s nice and smooth.
- Add whipped cream and mix again. Note: use whipped cream, not heavy whipping cream.
- Add sweetener and mocha keto chow and whip until everything is combined. You may have to scrape the sides.
- Add filling to the cooled pie crust and refrigerate for at least one hour, but the longer the better. Add whipped cream and the crumbs on top and a chocolate drizzle if desired.

This looks absolutely decadent. But what is the difference between whipped cream and heavy whipping cream? Also, for the separate greased baking dish for the crust, should that be spread out?
Thanks!
Heavy cream and whipping cream are two similar high fat dairy products that manufacturers make by mixing milk with milk fat. The main difference between the two is their fat content. Heavy cream has slightly more fat than whipping cream. Otherwise, they are nutritionally very similar. No sure what you mean about the crust question.
