- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Ensure butter, cream cheese, and vanilla extract are softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, powdered erythritol, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, cream together the softened butter, cream cheese, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing continuously until a dough-like consistency forms.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Shape into Balls: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls using your hands. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Chill: Once all the dough has been rolled into balls, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
- Serve and Store: Once chilled, transfer the fat bombs to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
