These little balls of fat, known as Keto fat bombs, can become your close companion. Don’t be intimidated by the name, as they are ideal for satisfying your appetite.
Keto Fat Bombs, what are they?
Fat bombs contain an abundance of beneficial fats and a small amount of carbohydrates, making them an ideal choice for those following a keto diet.
However, verify that the peanut butter and chocolate chips you use are free from sugar, and only use dark chocolate chips, and check their low amount of carbohydrates and very low added sugar – I found some that carry some 18g of added sugar..
Fat bombs can help you feel satiated for a longer period, encourage the process of ketosis, and may potentially enhance metabolism. You can store them in your refrigerator and consume them whenever you want.

Ingredients:
- 8 oz. Cream cheese at room temperature and softened.
- 1/2 cup keto-friendly peanut butter
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, plus 2 tbsp.
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 cup Dark chocolate chips that are suitable for a keto diet (such as the ones made by Lily’s brand).
Directions
- Cover a little baking tray with parchment paper.
- Mix cream cheese, peanut butter, ¼ cup of coconut oil, and some salt in a medium-sized bowl.
- Beat the mixture using a hand mixer until everything is fully combined. This mixing may require about 2 minutes.
- Place the bowl in a freezer to become slightly firm, which should take 10 to 15 minutes.
- After the peanut butter mixture has become firm, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions using a small cookie scoop or spoon.
- Put them in the refrigerator for 5 minutes until they have also hardened.
- Create a chocolate drizzle by heating a mixture of chocolate chips and 2 tsp of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Heat for 30 seconds at a time until the mixture has fully melted.
- Drizzle the chocolate over the balls made of peanut butter, and let them harden for 5 minutes by placing them back in the fridge.
- To keep it in storage, it is recommended to keep it covered in the fridge.
