These hazelnut coffee and chocolate fat bombs are really simple to make, and great to have in the fridge/freezer as a delicious sweet keto snack.These last all of 5 minutes if they’re left anywhere near me!
Keeping fat bombs on hand is a great way to keep your Keto macros on track when you’re craving something sweet whilst on a Ketogenic diet. I also like these chocolate pistachio fat bombs made with mascarpone and keep a few in Tupperware and are definitely worth a try!
I’ve just been daydreaming at work about Ferrero Rocher, those delicious hazelnut chocolates so beloved of embassies as the old advert would tell us. These aren’t quite the same but roasted hazelnuts have such a distinctive flavour I can’t help but make the comparison.
These are cream cheese fat bombs, so you need to keep everything cold else this gets pretty messy, but the reward is worth it! Thinking about it the resulting mixture could make a decent ice cream with a little cream added….(that’s for another day!)
If you’re in a hurry and need you’re fat fix, why not try a smoothie instead, this Turmeric Chai smoothie packs in 56g of fat per serving with all the added health benefits of turmeric!
