Ingredients
You only need 5 ingredients (see recipe card at the end of the post for amounts) to make these delicious amazing strawberry fat bombs.
- Cream cheese
- Swerve confectioners’ sweetener
- Coconut oil
- Vanilla extract
- Strawberries
Instructions
Making fat bombs is incredibly easy. Just puree the strawberries and then beat the puree together with the cream cheese, sweetener, coconut oil, and vanilla. Pour the mixture into a silicone mold and freeze. That’s it!
Quick tips
These heavenly bites are easy to make, and the following tips will ensure success.
- Let your cream cheese come to room temperature before you start mixing. This makes it much easier to get a nice smooth batter. It takes about an hour for cream cheese to come to room temperature after you take it out of the refrigerator.
- Puree the berries before adding them to the cream cheese.
- Once you’ve put the batter into the molds, freeze it for at least 2 hours to that it is completely set.
- Keep the finished fat bombs in the freezer for long-term storage. Once they are completely frozen solid, you can transfer them to a freezer-safe resealable plastic bag and keep them in the freezer.
- Once they are set, you can also store them in the refrigerator.
- Whether you keep them frozen or refrigerated, serve them cold.
FAQs
Before getting to the printable recipe, I wanted to share some of the most common questions others ask.
What are the best molds for making fat bombs?
You can really use any type of mold you have to make these fat bombs. I love using silicone candy molds because they are flexible, which makes it really easy to get the bites out of the mold.
An ice cube tray also works. Or you can use a mini cupcake tin or individual silicone mini cupcake molds.
Ideally, you just want to make these in molds that are small enough that each one is a couple of bites.
If you don’t have any type of small mold, no worries. You can pour the batter into a small loaf pan or a glass or ceramic dish and freeze. Once the mixture is completely frozen, use a small ice cream or cookie scoop to scoop out balls of the frozen batter.
If you like, you can arrange those balls on a baking sheet and freeze again until set, then transfer them to a resealable plastic bag and keep them in the freezer or refrigerator.
What is the best low-carb sweetener to use?
I use Swerve confectioners’ sweetener. This is equivalent to powdered sugar and I like it because it isn’t grainy like granulated sweetener, so it keeps these cheesecake bites creamy and smooth.
How long will they keep?
These fat bombs will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. Alternatively, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

This will be my go to fat bomb. I substituted allulose for donut flavored zero sugar coffee syrup (1.25tbsp).
Also I put a dab on sardines in olive oil and it reminds me of thanksgiving . Thank you for sharing W(`0`)W

What can you use in replace for the coconut oil? My spouse is allergic to coconut but would love to make these if there is a replacement for that oil.
Lisa MarcAurele
You should be able to use unsalted butter instead.
Pamela Barnes
I haven't tried these yet , but they sound delicious! I have a question, I do not have the molds for these and you have written to use a baking pan as a substitute. What dimension baking pan should I use?
Lisa MarcAurele
A small rectangular 1-quart dish works well.
Carol
How do You soften cream cheeses
Lisa MarcAurele
You can pop in in the microwave on low power or let it sit out at room temp until softened.

These are fantastic! Light and creamy with fantastic flavor, even though I forgot the vanilla! Can't wait to make them again with it!
jennifer
These look amazing and I have no idea why I've yet to make a fat bomb -- is all changing today, because I have cream cheese in the fridge, yay!
Donny
This is brilliant! Such a faster way to eat cheesecake than baking and cooling one for hours and hours. 😉

I love strawberry cheesecake so these are right up my alley!

What can you use instead of coconut oil? I do have butter on hand t this time.
Lisa MarcAurele
Butter should work.
Sandy
Lisa, I was wondering about that as well. Would avocado oil create an obvious taste or texture issue. Family member has coconut allergy. Poor thing. ????
Thank you for sharing your delicious keto/low carb recipes. Very much appreciated! ❤
Lisa MarcAurele
It's better to use a fat that turns solid so I'm not sure how well avocado oil would work. Butter or ghee would be a better.
Erin
Anything cheesecake is up my alley- but love how these are the perfect bite-size!
