Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need (spoiler: it’s not rocket science):
- 1 cup coconut oil (the glue that holds it all together)
- 1/2 cup nut butter (almond, peanut, or whatever floats your boat)
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder (because chocolate solves everything)
- 2–3 tbsp sweetener (erythritol, stevia, or monk fruit—pick your poison)
- Pinch of salt (to make the flavors pop)
- Optional add-ins: vanilla extract, shredded coconut, crushed nuts, or a dash of cinnamon
Step-by-Step Instructions

- Melt the coconut oil and nut butter together in a microwave or saucepan. Stir until smooth. (If you burn this, we can’t be friends.)
- Add cocoa powder, sweetener, and salt.
Mix until it looks like liquid brownie batter. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Pour into molds or an ice cube tray. Silicone molds work best, but a baking sheet with parchment paper does in a pinch.
- Sprinkle with add-ins if you’re feeling fancy.
Crushed almonds? Shredded coconut? Go wild.
- Freeze for 30 minutes or until solid.
Try not to eat them all at once. (No promises.)
Storage Instructions
Store these in the freezer unless you enjoy messy hands. They’ll last up to 3 months—if they survive that long. Pro tip: Layer them between parchment paper to prevent sticking.
FYI, the fridge works too, but they’ll soften.
Benefits of the Recipe

Besides being delicious, these fat bombs are keto-friendly, low-carb, and packed with healthy fats. They curb cravings, boost energy, and take zero effort to make. Plus, they’re portable—throw a few in a bag, and you’re set for emergencies (like sudden hunger or existential dread).
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using low-quality ingredients.
Cheap cocoa powder tastes like sadness. Spend the extra dollar.
- Over-sweetening. Start with less sweetener—you can always add more.
- Skipping the freezer.
These need to solidify, or you’ll have a gooey mess. Patience is key.
- Forgetting to grease molds. Unless you enjoy chiseling your snacks out.
Alternatives

Not feeling chocolate?
Try these swaps:
- Vanilla Berry: Swap cocoa for vanilla extract and mix in freeze-dried berries.
- Savory Cheese: Skip the sweet stuff, add cream cheese, herbs, and a bit of garlic powder.
- Coffee Lover’s: Add instant espresso powder for a caffeine kick.
FAQ
Can I use butter instead of coconut oil?
Yes, but the texture will be firmer when chilled. Coconut oil gives that melt-in-your-mouth vibe.
Are these really keto?
Absolutely. Each bomb has roughly 1–2g net carbs, depending on your add-ins.
Why are mine too soft?
You might have added too much nut butter or skipped the freezer.
Or maybe your kitchen is a sauna. Either way, freeze them longer.
Can I make these nut-free?
Sure. Use sunflower seed butter or tahini instead.
Just check for added sugars.
