Ingredients
- 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp Peanut butter
- 2 tbsp Erythritol or sweetener of choice
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp Optional: Shredded unsweetened coconut
Step 1: Prepare the Mixture
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, unsweetened cocoa powder, peanut butter, erythritol (or your preferred sweetener), and vanilla extract. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.
Step 2: Forming the Fat Bombs
Use a spoon or small cookie scoop to form small balls from the mixture. Place each ball on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
