I've just discovered fat bombs! I'm using a kind of boot-leg recipe and it is good, but I feel like it could be better - does anyone have any really delicious fat bomb recipes?

    Here's mine (makes 18):

    8.00 Tablespoons, Almond Butter Creamy With Sea Salt
    8.00 tbsp (5ml), Raw Organic Coconut Oil
    4.00 tbsp, Butter - Salted
    3.00 Tbsp, Baking Cocoa
    4-6 TBSP of Torani SF syrup to taste (I like English Toffee or Hazelnut)

    0.25 cup, Chopped Pecans Mk

    133 calories, 14g fat, 2g carbs, 1g fiber, 2g protein

    Melt & combine thoroughly first 4 ingredients. Add syrup to taste. Pour into ice cube trays or molds (silicone candy molds work well and can stretch recipe. Adjust nutritional info to account for servings you make). Sprinkle w/ chopped pecans or other nuts. Freeze. Remove from molds and store in freezer in ziploc or plastic ware.

    8 tbsp. refined coconut oil (I use Louanna's)
    4 tbsp. butter
    2 packets of Splenda or Stevia (or equivalent in liquid sweetener)
    5 tbsp. unsweetened Ghirabaldi cocoa powder (Hershey's if you can't find other) If you want to cut a few carbs, use less.
    Your favorite fatty nuts/seeds, I use mixed nuts.
    Melt and combine first (4) ingredients. Actually, I used an immersion blender, and I think they turned out better than the half a dozen other times I made it. I noticed that Stevia has a hard time dissolving in oils. So maybe use liquid Stevia, I like the taste of Splenda better, so I use it.

    Take a muffin/cupcake pan and line with cupcake papers. I put a generous portion of nuts in each cup. Put as much or a little you want. Then pour mixture over top of the nuts, try to keep it even from cup to cup.

    Freeze. Bag. Use MFP to calculate macros.

    If I had a mold, I would use it instead of the papers. I noticed when I peel the paper off the bombs, there are a few slivers of chocolate that fall off, right on the front of my shirt....then melt ... and it looks like crap on my shirt... LOL!

    Enjoy,

    Thank you both - I will try these - they sound much better than mine.

    And I'm familiar with the "crap on the shirt" situation Dan, I literally LOL'd when I read that.

    My go-to recipe:
    .5 C. virgin coconut oil
    1 T. unsweetened cocoa powder (good quality, like Ghiradelli)
    .5 T. grade b maple syrup
    1/4 chopped walnuts

    Melt oil and mix in cocoa and maple. Fill silicone molds (like ice cube trays) with nuts and pour oil mix on top. Stick in freezer.

    Nutrition-wise they come to 105 calories each, with 11 grams fat (1 carb, 1 sugar).

    Experiment. Almond butter, cinnamon, different nuts, a mix of butter and oil, etc. are all good additions. I played with sweeteners and maple I've decided is the right one for me, but you could try a variety of them to see what works for you.

    Cut cream cheese into squares and roll around in SF jello.
    I'll also sprinkle a little dry SF jello on mascarpone and eat it with a spoon. mm mm. There's always room for Jello.

    I don't know if it qualifies as a fat bomb per se, but I bought some strawberry flavored Philadelphia Cream Cheese. I just scoop it out and eat it. No muss, no fuss. Its like a small dessert after eating my main meal.

    5G carbs in 2 tablespoons.

    I hope this helps,

    Yeah, I have the little bar molds and some little cup ones (think mini cupcake size roughly).

    Unmolding is super easy, just pop out from the bottom once frozen. One hint: make sure to use a piece of cardboard or baking tray under the molds for transfering until frozen. The silicone is somewhat floppy.

    There are a lot of recipes that are nut based, which unfortunately stalls me out straight away!
    I use cocoa butter, powdered sweetener (stevia or erythritol), some finely grated lemon rind and some lemon essence. Straight into silicone molds and the fridge. The best thing is cocoa butter has a high melting point so you can keep them out of the fridge for longer than coconut oil or butter based bombs, so they travel better. They look like white chocolate too. Delish!

    So, if I use cocoa butter with unsweetened cocoa powder, plus some splenda/stevia, would that make sugar free chocolate bar?

    Its certainly worth a try Dan! Maybe put a bit of cream in too though - its the creaminess that would make it more chocolate-like. I found putting sweeteners in cocoa butter can give you a bit of a gritty texture if you're not careful. Still tastes great though!

    Google Lemon Clouds...I found it on Pinterest. Holy yum. So sorry, short on time or I'd paste it here. I do add lemon essential oil though, couple drops. Need to get my boys in bed. Enjoy!!

    Post back about the cocoa butter. I have a big bag I ordered around the holidays that i haven't gotten around to using yet!

    Love silicone molds! I put a small amount (TSP or so) of shredded parmesan (the kind in a tub...not the green can stuff) in each mold, and nuke for about a minute, 1:20. It makes a crunchy cracker thing. sometimes i sprinkle italian season or whatever on before nuking. good for snacks...dips..

    I also have a silicone cupcake mold that i use to bake eggs in. put a piece of ham in, a TBS of finely chopped tomato or onion or whatever, a tbsp of cheese, crack an egg on top and bake in the oven.

    I am such a lazy one when it comes to fat bombs. I slice 1 oz cream cheese off the block.
    then I stick a butter knife long way up the center. Sprinkle a wee bit of stevia. Eat it off the knife like an ice cream. The wee bit of stevia is what fits in a demitasse teaspoon tip.It would fill 1/8 tsp three times. Too much and it is awful.

    Some day I will try the special fat bombs. I am afraid to have too many around. I use my cream cheese on the knife as added fat to my meal in the form of my desert.

    I've made several candy-like ones in the nifty molds, but my favorite right now is a lemon cheesecake bar:

    http://alldayidreamaboutfood.com/2013/07/lemon-cheesecake-bars-with-shortbread-crust-low-carb-and-gluten-free.html

    Not the simplest thing out there (first make and bake the crust, then add the filling on top and bake again) but MAN, these are a hit both at home and at potlucks at work.

    9g fat
    1g carb
    1g fiber
    1g protein

    This is the recipe I use - I don't really like stevia or other artificial sweetners so I subbed the 14g unsweetened chocolate for 20 g of 70% cocoa solids chocolate and omitted the stevia. I make them in ice cube trays and I get about 18 out of this quantity. Slightly higher in carbs due to the change in chocolate but still not too bad. I change the nut butter sometimes as well.

    I just make a cheesecake recipe minus the sugar and crust and put it in mini cupcake holders (though next time I think I'm still going to do a thin crust of crushed pecans, salt and butter). I don't do artificial sweeteners either, but the cheesecake recipe is just cream cheese, sour cream, eggs and vanilla so it works great in bite size fat bombs.

    I also find I love to mix a block of cream cheese with a pint of heavy whipping cream until whipped and then just eat it straight out of the tupperware. Delicious.
