Cream Cheese Fat Bombs (Keto Cheesecake Balls)

These incredible cream cheese fat bombs taste just like cheesecake – only even better! They’re gluten free and completely keto with 0g net carbs per fat bomb! Easy to make and no actual cooking required. The hardest part will be eating just one!

What Makes This Recipe So Good

• Even the most fat-adapted keto eaters get hit by those sweet tooth cravings every now and then, and these keto cream cheese fat bombs are exactly what you need when it happens! They’re rich and creamy with just a little bit of keto-friendly sweetener and an amazing cinnamon-y coating.
• Fat bombs are perfectly portioned so it’s easy to monitor your macros. They’re a great boost of fat, too, especially when they come with zero net carbs.
• They’re a great option for a keep-on-hand treat! Refrigerate them in an airtight container and they’ll keep up to two weeks. Make sure to keep them refrigerated (or frozen) whenever you’re not actively eating them, because the cream cheese mixture will soften at room temperature.

Key Ingredients

Cream Cheese – We always recommend using Philadelphia brand original cream cheese for any keto recipe because it’s got the lowest carb count of any cream cheese we’ve been able to find. Use regular, full-fat cream cheese, too. Low fat, fat-free, and reduced fat products usually contain added sugars to make up for the flavor lost by processing out the fat. Plus keto eaters need a higher daily fat intake!

Keto Cookies – We’re using HighKey Snickerdoodle Mini Cookies for these cream cheese fat bombs because 1) the cookies are really freaking good and 2) they seriously make the fat bombs taste just. like. cheesecake. You won’t believe it! You can use any keto cookies you like for this recipe, though. Don’t be afraid to play with the flavors!

Chef’s Tips

• Pumpkin cheesecake fan? When autumn rolls around, swap the original cream cheese for a pumpkin cream cheese and whip up the most incredible pumpkin cheesecake fat bombs. We’re talking life-changing incredible here.
• If the cream cheese mixture is too messy for your liking, stick the bowl in the freezer for a little while before you scoop the mixture into balls. This’ll help the cream cheese set up and make it a little easier to scoop. It needs to be soft enough for the cookie crumble to stick, though, so don’t leave it in the freezer too long.
• Only have granulated sweetener? No problem! You can pulse the granulated sweetener in a food processor until it’s the consistency of powdered (Confectioners’) sweetener!
