These delicious little cookie dough flavored fat bombs boost your healthy fats and satisfy your sweet tooth! Perfect for a low carb treat!

Let's be honest, cookie dough is just as good, if not better than the actual baked cookies! I don't think I've ever baked a batch of cookies without having at least a small bite of the dough. 

I've turned those wonderful flavors into Keto fat bombs that are super easy to make! These cookie dough fat bombs have 9 grams of fat each and 1 gram of protein!

Chocolate shavings make these cookie dough fat bombs the best, easy no-bake low carb treat!

How to Make Cookie Dough Fat Bombs

Add all the dry ingredients to a bowl and whisk to combine.

In a separate bowl, add all the remaining ingredients, except for the chocolate.

Mix using a hand mixer until well combined.

Add in the dry ingredients and mix again briefly.

Next, fold in the chocolate.

Using a cookie scoop, scoop out the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Place the cookie dough fat bombs in the freezer for about 10 minutes or until set. You'll want to keep them chilled so, store them in the fridge for a few days or keep them in the freezer.

When you're ready for one, just take it out of the freezer and into the fridge until slightly thawed.

This is not a cookie dough that you can bake.  It's strictly for eating as is.

Sprinkle leftover shavings from the chopped chocolate right on top and there you have it! Perfect Keto cookie dough fat bombs!

Substitutions for Cookie Dough Keto Fat Bombs

• If you cannot find mascarpone cheese, you can substitute with cream cheese if you'd like.

• If you cannot find monk fruit/allulose, you can substitute with Swerve confectioners.  I prefer using the monk fruit/allulose to avoid any cooling effect.

• You can change up the flavors of this Keto fat bomb recipe by easily swapping out the dark chocolate with any of your favorite sugar free chocolate flavors or you can even mix the, Butterscotch chips and white chocolate chips are great in this recipe. I personally love Lily's Salted Caramel bars! They give these fats bombs a great flavor.

What's the Difference Between Mascarpone and Cream Cheese?

The origin of these two cheeses is one of the biggest differences. Cream cheese was created in America, where Mascarpone originated in Italy.

Mascarpone has fewer carbs, is more buttery than cream cheese due to its higher milk fat content, and has a much more mild flavor. Whereas cream cheese has less milk fat, is more tart and a little more salty.

Either one of these are excellent choices for fat on Keto, but when they're used together, as in these low carb cookie dough fat bombs, the combination creates beautiful texture and flavor.

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.

Most fat bombs can double as a sweet treat.  Who doesn't love a bite of something sweet, without having to make an entire cake, pie or batch of cupcakes!?
