Cheesecake Fat Bites Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup Swerve sweetener
- 1/4 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Mix Creamy Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, melted coconut oil, Swerve sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to create a flavorful and creamy base.
- Blend Smoothly: Use a mixer or blender to blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated for the best texture.
- Add Strawberries: Gently fold in the crushed freeze-dried strawberries, distributing them evenly throughout the creamy mixture to infuse a vibrant strawberry flavor.
- Fill Molds: Spoon the mixture into silicone molds or a mini muffin tin, which helps shape the bites and makes them easy to remove once frozen.
- Freeze Bites: Place the filled molds in the freezer and let them set for at least 2-3 hours until the bites become firm and ready to enjoy.
- Serve and Store: Once set, carefully pop the fat bites out of the molds and store them in the freezer to maintain their texture and freshness until you’re ready to snack.
Notes
- You can substitute Swerve sweetener with another low-carb sweetener like erythritol if preferred.
- Freeze-dried strawberries can be replaced with other freeze-dried berries for variation.
- Use silicone molds for easy removal; mini muffin tins work well if lined with paper liners.
- Keep the fat bites frozen until serving to maintain their shape and texture.
- This recipe is perfect for a quick low-carb dessert or a keto-friendly snack.
