Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs

- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- Whipped cream and chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)
Directions
- In a bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate, granulated sugar, and salt. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Fold the whipped cream into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined and no streaks remain.
- Pour the chocolate cream mixture into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Once the pie is set, garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired.
- Slice and serve chilled.
