🍓 Strawberry Cheesecake Fat Bombs

Servings: 12
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chill Time: 30 minutes​

🧾 Ingredients:

  • 8 oz (225 g) reduced-fat cream cheese, softened

  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or your preferred sweetener

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, chopped

  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut​

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered erythritol and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until well combined.

  2. Fold in the Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries until evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese mixture.

  3. Form the Fat Bombs: Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the cheesecake mixture into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  4. Chill the Fat Bombs: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill the fat bombs for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.

  5. Coat with Coconut: Once the fat bombs are chilled and firm, remove them from the refrigerator. In a shallow dish, combine the melted coconut oil and shredded coconut. Roll each fat bomb in the coconut mixture until evenly coated.

  6. Final Chill: Return the coated fat bombs to the refrigerator and chill for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the coconut coating is set.

  7. Serve and Enjoy: Once the fat bombs are fully set, transfer them to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator until ready to enjoy. Serve chilled and savor the creamy, strawberry-infused goodness of these Weight Watchers Strawberry Cheesecake Fat Bombs
