Ingredients
  

  • Cream cheese (8 oz), softened — use full-fat for the best texture and macros. For dairy-free, see Alternatives.
  • Unsalted butter (4 tbsp), softened — adds richness and helps set the fat bombs.
  • Strawberries (1/2 cup, finely diced) — fresh is best; pat dry well to reduce moisture.
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder (3 tbsp) — choose a good-quality cocoa for a deeper chocolate flavor.
  • Powdered erythritol or allulose (1/3 to 1/2 cup), to taste — powdered blends mix in smoothly.
  • Vanilla extract (1 tsp) — balances the chocolate and berry notes.
  • Pinch of fine sea salt — makes the flavors pop.
  • Optional add-ins: 1–2 tbsp coconut flour (for extra structure if your berries are juicy), 1 tbsp MCT oil (for mouthfeel), or 2 tbsp finely shredded unsweetened coconut for texture.
  • Equipment: Mixing bowl, hand mixer or spatula, silicone candy or mini-muffin molds, and a small cookie scoop or spoon.

Method
 

  1. Prep the strawberries: Wash, hull, and finely dice. Pat very dry with paper towels. This step helps the fat bombs firm up and prevents icy textures.
  2. Cream the base: In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter until very smooth and fluffy, about 1–2 minutes. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  3. Add flavor: Mix in cocoa powder, powdered sweetener, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Start with the lower amount of sweetener and adjust to taste. Beat until fully combined and silky.
  4. Fold in strawberries: Gently fold the diced berries into the chocolate mixture. If the mixture looks loose, stir in 1–2 teaspoons of coconut flour at a time (up to 2 tablespoons) until scoopable but still creamy.
  5. Portion into molds: Use a small scoop or spoon to fill silicone molds or mini-muffin liners. Aim for 1–1.5 tablespoon portions so each bite is satisfying.
  6. Chill to set: Freeze for 45–60 minutes, or refrigerate for 2–3 hours, until firm.
  7. Unmold and store: Pop them out of the molds and place in an airtight container. Keep in the fridge for a truffle-soft texture or in the freezer for longer storage.
  8. Serve: Enjoy straight from the fridge, or let frozen fat bombs sit at room temperature for 3–5 minutes before eating.
