“How will I ever survive without chocolate? Will I never be able to have a piece of chocolate cake for my birthday again? How can this be manageable?” These were the thoughts in my head 10 years when I first decided to try living without sugar and refined flours for 6 weeks.

6 Weeks of agony as I had to deny my sweet tooth and abstain. Utter Torture.

But then I discovered I could make the things I love without the sugar. Maybe they wouldn’t compare, but I had to try and try I did. And I kept trying and I keep trying and creating recipes for over 14 years now!

My Sugar Addiction

I can’t help myself, I have a sweet tooth, there is no denying. I have a thing for chocolate and I won’t be ashamed. I had a little relapse when I got pregnant with my 3rd child and decided I didn’t have an issue with sugar and I would just enjoy myself and then remove it after I gave birth.

He will be 16,  three days after Christmas which always brings  me back to that desperation I felt when I realized I was a sugar addict and I was worse than I really thought. I had no idea until I tried to remove the sugar and detox myself.

You see the first time I did it was purely to lose the baby weight from my 2nd child, I didn’t think I had a problem. I don’t think any addict realizes they have a problem until they try to stop whatever it is they are consuming and can’t get enough of.

Sugar Freedom

By the grace of God and support from a wonderful wise older mentor type mom, I was able to break free back in 2006 and have NEVER touched the white stuff since.

I remember that desperation and I never want to feel that way again. I have sugar freedom and I can still enjoy dessert and chocolate and pies as long as I make them sugar free. I can’t tell you why I ever got addicted to sugar, but it happened and it was real.

But today I live a life free from sugar addiction and I am grateful. My entire journey to keto is documented in my new cookbook, Naturally Keto . I’ve also created some sugar detox courses to help those of you who have struggled as I once did! 

HOW TO MAKE SUGAR FREE CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE

INGREDIENTS

You need a fabulous low-carb pie crust, I used my Easy Keto Pie Crust for this recipe. You also need heavy cream, unsweetened cocoa powder, xanthan gum, sea salt, chocolate liquid stevia or another low-carb sweetener of choice, sugar free chocolate chips, eggs, and vanilla extract. 

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Whisk the heavy cream and cocoa powder in a sauce pan. Sprinkle and whisk in xanthan gum, salt and stevia . Bring to a boil.

Reduce to simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens like pudding.

Remove from heat and add chocolate chips. Stir until smooth then set aside.

Add the rest of the ingredients to a stand mixer and blend until smooth.

Pour a small amount of the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and blend on low to temper the egg mixture. Add a little bit more at a time so you don’t cook the eggs.

Add the rest of the chocolate mixture into the stand mixer and blend until combined well.

Pour into prepared pie shell and cover the crust edges with aluminum foil so it doesn’t burn.

Bake for 25-30 minutes until center is set but still slightly jiggly.

Cool slightly then refrigerate to set for 6 hours or overnight.

Top with homemade whipped cream and chocolate shavings if desired.

CAN THE SWEETENERS BE SWAPPED?

Yes if you don’t have chocolate liquid stevia you can swap it with any low-carb sweetener you prefer. 

Here is my Sweetener Guide & Conversion Chart to help you figure out how much to use to replace the chocolate stevia. 

I am grateful I can still have chocolate cream pie without the desire to eat the whole thing! Stevia doesn’t make me crave and that’s what I’m sticking with. If I can do it, anyone can! Now go and enjoy some chocolate cream pie!
