Keto Cheesecake Fat Bombs: These cheesecake fat bombs are super delicious. In this recipe, I’ll show you how to create a fat bomb that is actually enjoyable to eat and doesn’t just taste like coconut or butter. I devoured the whole batch within a week, so I’m guessing that’s a good sign!
What Are Fat Bombs?
For beginners who are looking to start the ketogenic diet, it can be helpful to have keto fat bombs in the freezer ready to go as a way to increase fats in your diet.
The reason why fat bombs are helpful is because they are generally sweet tasting treats, so you are combining a dessert with an easy way to consume extra fat, especially for those who are not used to adding extra fat to their diets.
As you become more advanced into a ketogenic diet, fat bombs don’t play as much of an important role, but for beginners they are certainly very helpful to bridge the gap between a standard diet, and a ketogenic diet.
Why These Keto Cheesecake Fat Bombs Taste Delicious
This recipe for Keto Cheesecake Fat Bombs includes a vanilla flavoured bottom and chocolate flavoured top. The bottom of these fat bombs includes a cream cheese filling which keeps the texture soft and sweet. The top chocolate section is relatively crunchy. Trust me, it’s a good contrast.
What Moulds Should You Use?
I bought a mini cupcake pan from Kmart which is made from silicone. I highly recommend getting something similar because silicone makes the fat bombs easy to remove without destroying their structure. You can buy a similar mould on amazon here . Other readers have had great success with this particular product.
Recipe Tips Keto Cheesecake Fat Bombs
The Base Layer
As you begin to mix the base ingredients together, make sure the butter is melted. Otherwise, you will get clumps of butter throughout the mixture and the fat bombs won’t taste perfect.
Another tip: When you are spooning the mixture into the mini silicone tray, use a teaspoon to level out the top. It’s much easier to level out when the fat bombs are at room temperature than it is once they are frozen.
For extra bonus points: you can add either 1 teaspoon of natural strawberry extract or natural banana extract to create a seriously delicious flavour in the cheesecake base.
Top Layer
Be sure to slowly pour the mixture into the cupcake moulds on top of the cream cheese layer.
Why? You can always fill them up later, but it’s much harder to remove excess once inside the moulds. They can also overflow easily.

Sure! All you have to do is replace the cream cheese AND butter with coconut cream. You will get a similar texture, but unfortunately, they will taste like coconut.

To make these fat bombs into a coconut oil based fat bomb, simply replace the butter with coconut oil. It works well as I’ve tried it multiple times.
