Wow. Totally stealing the PB and whipped cream idea. Sounds like heaven.
PB, cream cheese, a tsp or 2 of almond milk and 1 or 2 drops liquid sweetener is pretty amazing too. It's like PB cheesecake.

Vanilla extract will give you a lot of flavor for few calories. However, if you have a Penzy's spices, they have a double extract. It is double the vanilla pods per amount of solvent (should be alcohol). The alcohol carbs are a whole different creature I am not familiar with, but... the amount needed to flavor would be trivial. You could spend the big bucks and get vanilla bean pods and flavor your drink by scraping a few pods into your confection and you would not have any sugar. Much more costly, though.0

No real use for coconut oil? I put 1/2tbs CO and 1 tbs of HWC in each of my 3 cups of coffee a day!! Yummo keeps me full! Some people use it in their tea or hot coco but never tried that0 -
Let us know the recipe you used and how it turns out.

I have always stopped myself from buying it because I am not a huge fan of coconut. But, I bought some with the intention of finding recipes to help mask the flavor.0 -

If you buy refined, it's flavorless but I personally think the unrefined has so little taste at all and it tastes like vanilla to me.0 -

I HATE the flavor of coconut myself, but this doesn't taste like the coconut we're used to. That sweetened too chewy strong stuff is nothing like this... It still makes me wrinkle my nose on occasion, but after a couple sips/bites, my taste buds chill out.. I actually miss it now if it isn't in my morning shake. Most fat bombs, I couldn't taste it in... but I'm still not big on using coconut milk/cream AND coconut oil... Baby steps, right?0 -
I am buying ingredients for fat bombs this weekend, so I am looking forward to seeing if I can handle the coconut oil. If what you say is true and the flavor is mellow, I can probably handle it. One of my main issues with coconut is the texture, so in oil form that should take care of the majority of my aversion.0

So apparently, I had purchased some extra virgin unrefined coconut oil (did not realize there were differences) and I made some butter pecan fat bombs and they actually were really good! I could taste the coconut, but it was not overwhelming. Definitely palatable for this non-coconut lover.
So glad to find that I can actually have and enjoy coconut oil!0
