Steps:
- Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray. Whisk the egg white, granulated sugar, almond extract and salt in a medium bowl until frothy. Add the coconut and stir to combine. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pie pan, then transfer to a baking sheet. Bake, rotating the pan occasionally, until the crust is golden brown around the edges and dry and lightly toasted in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool slightly.
- Make the filling: Combine the butter and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring, until melted and smooth, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the brown sugar and granulated sugar until combined. Whisk in the eggs, almond extract and salt. Whisk in the almond flour until smooth.
- Pour the filling into the crust. Loosely wrap a strip of foil around the crust edge to prevent it from over-browning. Bake on the baking sheet until a toothpick inserted into the center of the pie comes out mostly clean, about 30 minutes (the filling will crack slightly in spots). Transfer to the rack and let cool completely.
- Make the topping: Whisk the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Spoon over the pie before serving.
