Keto Chocolate Fat Bombs

(Recipe Credit:  https://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2018/07/23/fat-bombs-recipe-keto/ ) Total Time:  5m Yield:   Depends on shape made Ingredients 1/2 cup nut butter of choice, or coconut butter 1/4 cup cocoa or cacao powder 1/4 cup melted  coconut oil stevia to taste, or 1 tbsp liquid sweetener of choice optional, I like to add 1/8 tsp salt Instructions Stir all ingredients together until smooth. If too dry (depending on nut butter used), add additional coconut oil if needed. Pour into a small container, ice cube trays, or candy molds. Freeze to set. Because coconut oil softens when warm, it’s best to store these in the freezer.
