I actually wrote this recipe for my best friend, who sometimes struggles with nighttime sweets cravings.  She is often challenged with not having enough healthy fats also, so this recipe helps her in both areas!

I delivered them to her at lunch yesterday and I'm happy to report she thought they were "phenomenal"!

What I really love about these Keto fat bombs is that they freeze beautifully! So you can make a batch, pop some in the freezer for later and whenever you need a small bite of something sweet, viola you have some already on hand!

A very easy to make cheesecake dessert that's low carb and Keto friendly. Just a few simple steps and you'll have wonderful little cheesecake bites of goodness!

Ingredients for Keto Cheesecake Fat Bombs

  • Cream cheese
  • Sour cream
  • Swerve confectioners
  • Eggs
  • Lemon zest
  • Vanilla extract

Optional: Lily's Chocolate chips (or your favorite sugar-free chocolate) plus 1 ½ teaspoons coconut oil to melt and drizzle over the tops.

*Exact measurements are listed in the recipe card below.

How to Make Cheesecake Fat Bombs

Preheat your oven to 350F.

Cheesecake Fat Bombs - Keto and Low Carb

Add the cream cheese and sour cream to a large mixing bowl and whip it using a hand mixer (or stand mixer).

Add in one egg at a time and continue mixing.

Mix in the rest of the ingredients, until well combined.

Using a mini cookie scoop or melon baller, scoop the batter (it will be loose) into the fat bomb molds and bake for 15- 20 minutes or until set.

The very center will still have a slight jiggle to it, do not over-bake these.

Mine took exactly 20 minutes.

For an optional topping on these low carb fat bombs, you can melt ¼ cup Lily's dark chocolate chips (or your favorite sugar-free chocolate) with 1 ½ teaspoons coconut oil in the microwave for 30 seconds (or until melted) and stir to combine.

Drizzle the sugar free chocolate mixture over the tops of the cooled fat bombs and chill in the fridge to set.

Store leftovers in the fridge for a few days or in the freezer.

These fat bombs are not overly sweet, so if you want them to be really sweet, feel free to add a little more Swerve.

Are There Carbs in Cream Cheese?

On Keto and most all low carb diets, carb counts matter. Cream cheese, just like nearly all cheese, has a low carb count with less than 1 gram per 1 ounce serving.

Is Cream Cheese Keto?

Cream cheese is an excellent source of healthy fat! With its 1g of net carbs it packs 7 grams of fat. For a low-carb, high-fat diet like Keto, those are excellent macros.

You want to stick with the original, plain cream cheese and avoid the flavored ones as they often times contain sugars other high carb ingredients that are not Keto friendly.

Why Eat Keto Fat Bombs?

A Ketogenic Diet consists of a high amount of fat, moderate protein and low carbs, so the bulk of our calories come from healthy fats.  If we don't consume enough healthy fat, we run the risk of following a high protein diet which is not Keto!  

Some people struggle with this concept, since we're been told for many years that fat is bad and we should eat low/no fat.  Nothing could be further from the truth!  

These fats can include butter, heavy cream, coconut and coconut oil, avocados and avocado oil, mascarpone cheese, olive oil, cream cheese to name a few.  For a more comprehensive list of these foods, see my Keto Foods List!  For different ideas on how to use them , check out 15 Ways to Add More Fats into Your Keto Diet.

Adding these healthy fats into our meals is key, but there are times when you just don't have enough or doesn't quite fit into a particular meal that you're preparing.  Fat bombs are perfect for times like this, where you can consume one or two and get your healthy fats in your macros!  Most recipes make a fairly decent amount and most often can be frozen, so you can always have some on hand!

Another great perk to most fat bombs is they double as a sweet treat, that doesn't kick you out of Ketosis!   Who doesn't love a bite of something sweet, without having to make an entire cake, pie or batch of cupcakes!?

I just finished making the cheesecake fat bombs the first time, mine don’t look as pretty. Do you have a trick with the drizzling of chocolate? Thanks

Both in the itemized ingredients as well in the preparation details underneath it, there is a discrepancy with the Optional: drizzle. At the top, it says 1/4 cup Lily's choc. chips & in step 4, it says 1/3 cup. Can you please tell me which is the correct measurement? Thanks.

I've never tried substituting with Stevia honestly, so I can't say for sure how they'd turn out.

I buy them locally at a health food store, but they also sell them at Publix, Kroger (online delivery) or you can order from a number of online stores.

Hmm, I've never tried making them with liquid stevia, so I wouldn't be able to give you measurements or know how they'd turn out sorry. If you have granular Swerve or erythritol, you can grind it to a fine powder to sub for the Swerve confectioners, if that helps.

These are awesome! Thank you for posting. I didn't have Swerve confection sweetener and used regular Swerve (b/c I was lazy and didn't want to process the Sweeve into powder), and they turned out fat-bulous! My husband even likes them.
