Ingredients
- ½ cup sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds or nuts of choice
- ½ cup coconut flour
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup Swerve confectioners or erythritol or ½ teaspoon pure stevia extract
- 8 tablespoons butter unsalted, softened
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Pecan Cream Filling
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla liquid stevia
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup Swerve confectioners
- ¼ cup Lakanto sugar free maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon Liquid caramel stevia

Instructions
Chocolate Pie Crust
- Add all ingredients into a food processor and process until smooth.
- Grease a 9 inch pie plate and press mixture into pan as evenly as possible.
Pecan Cream Filling
- In a large mixing bowl combine the heavy whipping cream with vanilla stevia and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
- In another bowl, combine the room temperature cream cheese with Swerve confectioners, sugar free maple syrup, caramel stevia and a pinch of salt. Beat until smooth and creamy.
- Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture and stir together until combined. Stir in 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Spread mixture into pie crust. Sprinkle remaining pecans on top of the pie.Cover and refrigerate for 6-8 hours or for best results overnight.
- Optional topping for decoration; I like to add more whipped cream around the edges of the pie using my whipped cream canister to decorate with the star tip.
- Storage: Cover with plastic wrap or place leftover pieces in an airtight container and refrigerate for up 5 days.
