I wanted to make a bigger batch of some chocolate fat bombs, but most of the recipes I found used things like xylitol, that can be very toxic to pets - and that many people can't find. I decided to try to do one that was simpler, with more commonly found ingredients. This one came together easily, and is pretty good - but I'll keep playing with it, until it's perfect. In the meantime, this one is *very* low carb, rich, satisfying, and chocolatey! The cream cheese, butter, cacao butter, & cacao are all measured by weight, not volume. This recipe can be halved, sweetened to your taste, with your choice of sweetener, and nuts, seeds, or stevia - sweetened chocolate chips can all be added, as you like. This batch, with chopped pecans added, made 30 - 1oz fat bombs... but, I don't know how long they will keep, because the two of us scarfed 'em all up, in less than a week!

Collect & measure all your ingredients, and allow to come to room temperature, and melt the cacao butter. I did it in the microwave(&I hate the microwave!).
Cream together the butter and cream cheese, and gradually drizzle in the melted cacao butter, til it's all combined and fluffy. It will start out looking almost cuddled, but don't worry, this is why a stand mixer is better, even though you can use a hand mixer. It will take several minutes, for it to get fluffy again, after you add the cacao butter.
Combine and mix the dry ingredients, and gradually stir into the fluff. Stir in nuts, if you like. Lay waxed paper on a large cookie sheet or pan, and wet the scoop (or spoon). Scoop up balls of the fluff and set on the waxed paper, with just a little space between them. Put them in the fridge, until solid. Store in a sealed container, in the refrigerator.
