Ingredients
  • 4 oz Cream Cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 2 tablespoons Erythritol or other Keto-Friendly Sweetener
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil, melted

Mixing the Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, cocoa powder, erythritol (or your preferred keto sweetener), and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend all ingredients until smooth and creamy. Ensure there are no lumps.

Adding Coconut Oil

Stir in the melted coconut oil until it is fully incorporated into the mixture. This will help the fat bombs solidify nicely in the freezer.

Forming the Fat Bombs

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture onto the parchment paper. Alternatively, you can use a silicone mold for a more uniform shape.

Freezing

Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 1 hour, or until the fat bombs are firm. Once frozen, transfer them to an airtight container and store them in the freezer.
