Make a chocolate crust
You can use your favorite 8-inch or 9-inch pie crust for the base. I made a simple chocolate pie crust, that requires no baking.
- To make: 1 1/2 cups crushed keto chocolate cookies, 6 tablespoons butter of choice (melted), 1-2 tablespoons sweetener (if you prefer a super sweet crust).
- In a large mixing bowl, add your ingredients and mix well. Transfer to an 8 or 9-inch pan and press into place. Refrigerate until firm.
