Transfer to a clean sauce pan and cook combined mixture over medium heat until it comes to a boil.
Continue whisking for 1-2 minutes, until thickened.
Set aside to cool slightly.
Pour the chocolate custard into the pie shell and refrigerate for 3 hours or until firm.
Place the extra cream and sour cream in a bowl and whisk until stiff peaks form, spoon on top of pie and dust with cocoa to serve.
