Tips for making the BEST keto chocolate-covered cherry fat bombs:
- I opted to scoop out the cheesecake filling with a small cookie scooper, but you can get really creative if you opt to use a silicone mold (like a heart, star, or shell) – perfect if you are creating these fat bombs for a special occasion.
- Fat bombs can be stored in an air-tight container for up to one week in the fridge. You can also freeze these if you are making them ahead of time and they can be stored in the freezer for up to three weeks.
- The secret to these yummy fat bombs is the OliveNation Cherry Extract! It’s so flavorful and really sets these fat bombs apart. If you’d like to grab some, head to the OliveNation website and use promo code HIP2KETO to save an additional 20% off your purchase!

Whipped cocoa and cherry filling gets coated with a rich chocolate shell for a decadent fat bomb all will enjoy!
Ingredients
Cocoa Cherry Cream Cheese Filling:
- 8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
- 5 tablespoons butter, room temperature
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted (but not hot!)
- 1/4 cup keto-friendly granular sweetener (I used Lakanto Golden)
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons OliveNation cherry extract
- 1/2 teaspoon OliveNation vanilla extract
Chocolate Coating:
Directions
1
In a large mixing bowl, add all cocoa cherry cream cheese filling ingredients together. Mix with a handheld mixer for two minutes.
2
Using a scoop, place rounded cocoa cherry cream cheese balls on a parchment-lined cookie sheet or mini muffin tin.
3
Place in the freezer for 15-30 minutes to firm up. You can even freeze overnight if you'd like to save dipping them in chocolate for the next day.
4
When ready to start dipping, add keto-friendly chocolate chips to a microwavable-safe bowl and melt in the microwave for 15-second intervals, stirring each time. This will take about 45 seconds to completely melt. Add a teaspoon of coconut oil to the chocolate chips to give the chocolate a smoother texture.
5
Remove fat bombs from the freezer. Using tongs or two spoons, dip one fat bomb at a time into the melted chocolate, completely coat, and lift out of the chocolate letting the excess drip back into the bowl or cup. Place the chocolate-coated fat bomb back on the parchment-lined pan or cooling rack and let the chocolate harden.
*You could also drizzle the chocolate over the cheesecake fat bomb if you'd prefer not to use the dipping method.
6
Once the chocolate has hardened, store in an air-tight container in the freezer or refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy!

“Wow, these fat bombs are so incredibly tasty! I had a feeling these would be a new favorite just from the recipe name, but I was really impressed with how well they turned out. I love the combination of cherry and chocolate, and these sure hit the spot! The chocolate shell is the perfect addition for an added crunch!”
