Total Time: 5 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 bombs
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup sweetener of choice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by gathering all ingredients and measuring them precisely. Line a mini muffin tin with silicone cupcake liners or paper liners for easy removal.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, gently melt coconut oil in 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval until completely liquid and smooth.
- Add peanut butter to the melted coconut oil and whisk until fully incorporated and no streaks remain.
- Sift cocoa powder into the mixture to prevent clumping, then add your chosen sweetener and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is completely smooth and glossy.
- Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cavity approximately 2/3 full to allow for even freezing.
- Place the muffin tin in the freezer for 20-25 minutes, or until the fat bombs are completely solid and have a firm, glossy appearance.
- Remove from freezer and pop out the fat bombs. For best texture, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 1 week.
- Before serving, let the fat bombs sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes to soften slightly for optimal taste and texture.
Tips
- Prep Your Workspace: Before you start, make sure to gather all your ingredients and tools. This will streamline the process and keep your kitchen organized.
- Melt Coconut Oil Gently: When melting the coconut oil, do it in 15-second intervals to avoid overheating. Stirring between intervals ensures a smooth consistency.
- Sift Cocoa Powder: Sifting the cocoa powder before adding it to the mixture helps prevent clumps, resulting in a smoother texture.
- Choose Your Sweetener Wisely: Whether you prefer stevia, erythritol, or another sweetener, make sure it's one that you enjoy, as it will greatly affect the flavor of your fat bombs.
- Fill the Muffin Tin Carefully: Pour the mixture into the muffin tin, filling each cavity about 2/3 full to allow for expansion as they freeze.
- Freezing Time Matters: Ensure that the fat bombs are completely solid before removing them from the tin. This typically takes about 20-25 minutes.
- Storage Tips: For optimal texture and taste, store your fat bombs in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They are best enjoyed within a week.
- Serve at Room Temperature: Allow the fat bombs to sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving. This will enhance their flavor and make them easier to bite into.
