Why Is It Called French Silk Pie?

It does have such a rich flavor, that you're not going to be able to eat that much of this Keto French Silk Pudding anyway. If you like chocolate then, then you're going to love this pudding. It's rich, and smooth, and will hit any chocolate craving you might be having.
Can I Make This Into A Keto French Silk Pie?
Yes! It's actually very easy. To do that, follow the directions to make the Keto French Silk Pie Pudding. Then make my Keto Pie Crust recipe. Fully bake the pie crust and let it cool. Then spread in this Keto French Silk Pudding. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
What Is French Silk Pie Made Of?
Five ingredients, y'all. That's all you'll need to make this recipe. It's so good it's guaranteed to be on steady rotation in your house!
- Truvia- This is what makes it perfectly sweet and also keeps it low carb.
- Eggs- Help thicken the pudding without the addition of gelatin, flour, or cornstarch.
- unsweetened chocolate squares- You can also use sugar free chocolate chips if you're having trouble finding these.
- Butter- Full fat and unsalted works best.
- Heavy Whipping Cream- To make it extra creamy
How Do You Make French Silk Pie Pudding?
- Beat whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Set the cream in the refrigerator.
- Place Truvia, chocolate, eggs, and butter in a saucepan. Melt together the ingredients over medium heat, stirring often. Once the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, set aside to cool slightly.
- Slowly mix the chocolate mixture into the whipped cream, and stir gently until it is well-incorporated.
- Pour into six ramekins and refrigerate until set.
Tips And Tricks
- Do not overcook the egg mixture, or cook on a high heat, unless you want chocolatey scrambled eggs.
- Don't whip the chocolate and whipped cream together. Use a silicone spatula and just gently fold the two together until there are no longer white streaks.
Does French Silk Pie Need Refrigerated?
For best results and for the longest-lasting leftovers, you will want to pop anything you don't eat right after you make it into the refrigerator. This helps keep the pudding thick and prevents bacteria and mold from forming.
How Long Does It Last?
This French Silk Pudding is an absolute delight and I was hard-pressed to let it sit in the fridge long enough to see how long it would stay good for.
If you have a little more self-control than I do, or don't have anyone to share this with, it retains its texture for 3-4 days. After that, it begins to separate slightly.

This looks delish. Could I use regular swerve and would it be the same amount as truvia ?
pamela
Your recipe called for 3/ cup of Truvia, which by my scale is 150g, not .75. What is the correct amount?
TwoSleevers
I use a conversion calculator for my recipes to provide the weighted measurments. The correct measurment should be 3/4 cup of Truvia.

I absolutely love this pudding it's so rich & yummy, but when I made it
it was very grainy - clearly the trivia did not dissolve when mekting it with all the other ingredients. What can I do to make sure the trivia does dissolve? Please advise and thank you for the great recipe, Mary
URVASHI PITRE
Hey there. So run it through a coffee grinder or use confectioners swerve so it doesn’t stay grainy
Mary
SURE THING - THANK YOU!
Cheri
Recipe says it makes 8 servings but instructions say to put into 6 ramekins ????
URVASHI PITRE
Whoops! Bad math on my part thanks for letting me know. I will fix that
Allison
Delicious as written! I was wondering about substituting cocoa powder for the unsweetened chocolate next time. Do you think it would work? If so, how much powder should be used?
Jo Ann
I always substitute 3 Tablespoons cocoa plus 1 Tablespoon oil for a square of unsweet chocolate--works fine.
