1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the Chocolate Cream Filling

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chocolate Crust

In a bowl, mix chocolate cookie crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until evenly combined. Press firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8 minutes, then cool completely.

Step 2: Beat the Cream Cheese

In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy with no lumps.

Step 3: Add Sugar and Vanilla

Mix in powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 4: Add Melted Chocolate

Slowly add melted chocolate to the cream cheese mixture, mixing continuously to ensure a silky texture.

Step 5: Whip the Cream

In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Step 6: Fold the Filling

Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.

Step 7: Fill the Crust

Spoon the chocolate filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top evenly.

Step 8: Chill the Pie

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

Step 9: Prepare Chocolate-Covered Strawberries

Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil or butter until smooth. Dip strawberries halfway into chocolate and place on parchment paper.

Step 10: Decorate the Pie

Arrange chocolate-covered strawberries on top of the chilled pie just before serving.

Notes

Cool melted chocolate slightly before mixing.
Use fresh, dry strawberries to prevent slipping.
Chill the pie fully before decorating.

Use a hot knife for clean slices.
