Chocolate Truffle Fat Bombs

I make these when I want dessert to feel like an actual treat instead of a compromise. The mixture comes together in one bowl with cream cheese, butter, and SunButter, chills until it is firm enough to roll, and then gets rolled in sweetened cocoa powder, which is what turns them into real truffles. One batch makes 24, at 1.4 grams of net carbs each.

Ingredients

6 oz cream cheese softened
¾ cup melted unsalted butter (6 oz)
¼ cup + 2 tbsp No-Sugar-Added SunButter (96g)
½ cup + 2 tbsp powdered monk fruit sweetener (120g)
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (40g)
½ cup coconut flour (56g)
¼ tsp pure vanilla extract
⅛ tsp salt

Cocoa Powder Coating:

2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (10g)
1 tsp powdered monk fruit sweetener (4g)

Instructions

Fat Bombs: In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, mix cream cheese until whipped. Add melted butter and SunButter and mix again, starting at lowest speed before increasing mixer to highest mixer speed until thoroughly incorporated. Mix in powdered monk fruit sweetener, cocoa powder, coconut flour, vanilla extract, and salt. Cover mixing bowl with a lid, aluminum foil, or plastic wrap and transfer bowl to the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour.
Remove mixing bowl from refrigerator and form mixture into balls or scoop and flatten into silicone mold cavities. Transfer fat bombs to the refrigerator to chill for 1 additional hour.
Cocoa Powder Coating: After fat bombs have chilled, in a shallow dish, whisk together cocoa powder and powdered monk fruit sweetener. Individually roll fat bombs in cocoa powder mixture.

Notes

Where You Can Purchase Monk Fruit Sweetener: I purchase mine from Lakanto's website and have it delivered. If you’d rather purchase monk fruit sweetener in a store, many grocery stores, especially specialty stores and Costco, carry Lakanto’s monk fruit sweetener.

Using A Silicone Mold Instead Of Rolling Fat Bombs Into Balls: This will work just fine. Silicone molds are sold on Amazon and at many kitchen supply stores. The one I most commonly use is this silicone mold with round cavities.

Weight Of Each Fat Bomb: To yield 24 fat bombs, each fat bomb should weigh between 26g-28g.

Net Carbs: Per serving, there are 1.4 grams of net carbs. One serving is equivalent to 1 fat bomb and the recipe, as written, yields 24 fat bombs. Net carbs are calculated by taking total carbs, subtracting fiber, and subtracting sugar alcohols.

Refrigerator Storage: Store fat bombs in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Freezer Storage: Store fat bombs in the freezer in an airtight container for up to 3 months. I would suggest laying them in layers and separating the layers with sheets of parchment paper to avoid them all sticking together. When you’re ready to eat them, pull out the amount you want and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to slightly thaw before eating.
