ALMOND CHOCOLATE FAT BOMB
My versions of fat bombs are based on the recipes I found in the Fat Fast Cookbook: 50 Easy Recipes to Jump Start Your Low Carb Weight Loss by Dana Cerpender,Amy Duggan and Rebecca Latham.
200 gm butter
200 gm coconut oil
3 Whitakers mini dark chocolate bars or 45 gm of darkest chocolate possible.
70 gm whole almonds
2 teaspoons of peppermint essence (optional)
36 sweet cases
Gently melt butter and coconut oil
Check that this is not too hot. Remove from heat, and add chocolate. Stir until chocolate has melted and blended in. Stir in the almonds and peppermint essence if using
Prepare sweet cases by laying out on a board and placing a whole almond in each one.
Place spoonfuls in each case until mixture used up. I usually start with a teaspoon and go around two or three times keeping the same amount in each sweet case as much as I can.
Allow to set then place in fridge or freezer to harden.
I store them in zip lock bags in the freezer. The coconut oil tends to separate ate so you have a chocolate and a white layer. The coconut oil melts in a warm room so I eat them straight from the freezer.
One Bomb is 138 cal; 1.3gm carb; 0.8gm protein; 15 gm fat
Another version with peanut butter
