Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need for the Keto Snickerdoodle Cheesecake recipe:
Fat Bombs
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup powdered erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Optional Frosting
- 2 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon powdered erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener
- ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Additional cinnamon for dusting
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Add sweetener and flavorings: Gradually add the powdered erythritol, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Continue beating until well combined.
- Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up the mixture. This will make it easier to shape the fat bombs.
- Shape: Once chilled, use a small cookie scoop or spoon to form the mixture into small balls. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate.
- Freeze: Freeze the fat bombs for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
- Make frosting (optional): While the fat bombs are freezing, prepare the frosting if desired. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the heavy cream, sweetener, and vanilla extract, and continue beating until light and fluffy.
- Frost and serve: Once the fat bombs are frozen, remove them from the freezer. If using frosting, drizzle or pipe it onto the fat bombs. Dust with additional cinnamon if desired.
- Store: Store the fat bombs in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two months.
Tips
- Use a cookie scoop for even-sized fat bombs.
- For extra cinnamon flavor, roll the fat bomb balls in cinnamon before freezing.
- Experiment with other keto-friendly flavorings, such as almond extract or a pinch of nutmeg.
