My husband was a little leary at trying them since he enjoyed the original fat bombs so much, but even HE couldn't ignore the fact that these are AWESOME!
Now I've tweaked the recipe a tad because I found that it did not have any sweetener in it and the first three ingredients really had not taste to them when melted together. Below I've typed the amount that I added since that's when I thought they tasted perfect. You may not like them so sweet or you may want them sweeter. You taste and decide.
Oh, and before I share the recipe, this filled 24 mini cupcake tin to the top of each cup. So here we go...
Almond Joy Fat Bombs
What You Will Need:
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 3 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 Tbsp Stevia (or your choice of sweetener)
- 1/2 tsp coconut flakes per cupcake cup
- 2 to 3 almonds per cupcake cup
What You Will Do:
- Combine peanut butter, coconut oil, cocoa powder and sweetener in a microwave safe dish and heat until melted (about 30 seconds--add 15 seconds if not quite melted).
- Stir until well mixed.
- In cupcake tin place one to two almonds in the bottom of each tin. Cover with the 1/2 tsp of coconut flakes.
- Fill each tin with the microwaved mixture until almonds and coconut flakes are covered. (I then placed one more almond on top).
- Freeze for 30 minutes until set.

Enjoy....'cause these are mighty good!!
Simply Indulging,
Did you spray your pan with anything before adding the ingredients?
ReplyDeleteGreat Question! I used the mini cupcake liners so I didn't have to use any spray and clean up was so much easier. Hope this helps!
DeleteI ended up not using liners or spraying them and they came out easily with a knife. They are so delicious, thank you so much for sharing your recipe!
