Notes
You can use dairy butter instead of cacao butter, but the latter gives more flavor, so try to use at least some cacao butter in the crust.
If you use Xylitol instead of a zero-calorie sweetener, the recipe comes out to be approximately 383 Calories per serving.
The exact amount of sweetener added to the filling might depend on the sweetness of the dark chocolate you are using. I suggest tasting the filling while mixing and adding sweetener to taste.
