Crust:
Lightly grease a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder and sweetener; add melted butter; stir until mixture clumps together. Press firmly and evenly into bottom and up sides of prepared tart pan. Refrigerate until filling is ready.
Chocolate Mousse:
In a small pan, combine cream, almond or cashew milk and butter; bring to a full boil; remove from heat.
In a blender, combine unsweetened chocolate, cocoa powder, sweetener and espresso powder. Pour in scalded cream mixture; blend until smooth. Add eggs; blend until smooth (If you're concerned about the eggs, use pasteurized shell eggs like Safest Choice). Pour into chilled crust; chill until firm, at least 1 hour. Gently press the tart pan from the bottom to remove the sides; place on a serving platter.
Topping:
Beat whipping cream with sweetener and vanilla until it holds stiff peaks. Spread over mousse to the edges of the tart.
Using a grater, shave the dark chocolate over the whipping cream. Refrigerate a little while before serving.
