Crust:
Mix together crust ingredients well and press into the 9 inch pie dish and chill.
In a microwavable dish, combine chocolate chips and 3/4 c. heavy cream; microwave on High for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Let cool to room temperature. Stir in sugar and vanilla; set aside.
In a stand mixer, beat remaining heavy cream until soft peaks form, 3-5 minutes. Remove bowl from stand mixer; fold in chocolate mixture, 1/3 at a time; carefully spoon into the prepared crust.
Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
