Description
A simple, no-cook keto snack made with just four ingredients. These creamy, chocolatey fat bombs satisfy sweet cravings without sugar or complex preparation.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (250g) creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) coconut oil
- Optional: Liquid sweetener (stevia or monk fruit) to taste
Instructions
- Line silicone molds or a mini muffin tin with parchment paper and place in the freezer for 5 minutes to chill.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine peanut butter, butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, stir, and microwave for another 15 seconds if needed until smooth and warm.
- Drop about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture into the bottom of each chilled mold cavity. Smooth the top and return to the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring vigorously between each burst, until the mixture is completely smooth and glossy.
- Remove molds from the freezer. Pour or spoon the melted chocolate over the peanut butter centers, filling each mold to the top.
- Use a toothpick to swirl the chocolate and remove any air bubbles. Ensure the peanut butter is fully covered.
- Place molds in the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until completely solid.
- Pop the fat bombs out of the molds. If they stick, run the mold under warm water for a few seconds. Store in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
Use refined coconut oil for a neutral flavor, or unrefined if you prefer a coconut taste. Do not overheat the chocolate to prevent seizing. These are best eaten frozen; if left at room temperature, the coconut oil will melt. For a nut-free version, substitute sunflower seed butter for peanut butter. For a dairy-free version, use coconut oil instead of butter and dairy-free chocolate chips.
