These keto cookie dough fat bombs are a creamy, chocolatey sweet treat with only four ingredients. They can be made in about 5 minutes!
The other day I was making some chocolate chip cookies and, like most people, I snuck a couple bites of the cookie dough. Why is it that the cookie dough is always better than the cookie?
Even though there are quite a few ingredients in cookies, there doesn’t have to be in a simple cookie dough that you’re not intending to bake. So, I made this recipe up so the you can enjoy a tasty keto friendly cookie dough without any grains, dairy or eggs!
Why I love this recipe:
- These tasty bites have a lightly sweet creamy nutty doughy texture with pops of chocolatey goodness with each bite. They’re the perfect keto-friendly treat!
- Not only are these keto cookie dough fat bombs delicious, but they are also really easy to make. There are only 4 ingredients so you can whip up a batch in probably 5-10 minutes.
- All the ingredients in this recipe are vegan, paleo and keto, so they’re suitable for most people!
Keto Cookie Dough Fat Bomb Recipe tips:
- This recipe uses coconut butter (also sometimes called coconut manna) for the creamy yet pliable cookie dough texture. Coconut butter is basically dried coconut which has been processed into a nut butter-like texture. (NOTE: It is NOT the same thing as coconut cream…that will not work for this recipe) You can buy jars of coconut butter at most health food stores or online. Some people have even had success making their own with shredded coconut and a food processor.
- I used almond butter but you can substitute it for another nut butter like peanut butter, cashew butter or sunflower butter. Just make sure there’s no added sweetener in the nut butter if you want it to be keto!
- These should be stored in the refrigerator and may get hardened in the fridge. Be sure to take them out of the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature for about an our before eating them.
How to Make These Keto Cookie Dough Fat Bombs
Gather your ingredients including the coconut butter, nut butter, sweetener and chocolate chips.
In a mixing bowl, add in the coconut butter, nut butter and sweetener. If the coconut butter is very stiff you can microwave it for 30 seconds until it is more pliable like nut butter texture.
Mix together and work out any lumps until it’s smooth.
Add in the chocolate chips and fold them in evenly.
Take small bits of the batter and roll them into balls. If the batter seems too wet, leave it in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes until it hardens a little but is still pliable enough to work with, then roll into balls. Store in the refrigerator.
