A wonderfully short ingredients list and a 10-minute preparation time make these keto fat bombs one of the easiest treats in my repertoire.

Instructions

Combine the peanut butter, sweetener, and cocoa powder in a medium bowl.
Mix the ingredients with a fork or rubber spatula until smooth. The mixture will be very thick. It should have the texture of edible playdough.
Use a scant cookie scoop (a 2-tablespoon scoop) to portion the mixture, then shape each portion into a smooth ball with your hands. If you use stevia, you should get six balls. With a powdered sweetener, you should get seven.
Serve immediately.

Notes

I recommend using Dutch-processed cocoa powder, processed with alkali. It's milder, darker, and less acidic than natural cocoa powder.
If you prefer a granulated sweetener, use a powdered sweetener to prevent a grainy mouthfeel. If you do, you'll likely need to add water to the mixture. In my experiments, I determined that 2 tablespoons of water work. But start with one tablespoon, mix it into the batter, then decide if you want to add another. Your goal is to have a smooth dough that you can shape with your hands.
I highly recommend using a freshly opened and stirred jar of peanut butter. This will ensure the peanut butter is fairly liquid and not too thick. Once refrigerated, it thickens. And no matter how well you stir, the peanut butter near the bottom of the jar tends to be too dry.
The texture of the batter depends on how thick or thin your peanut butter is. If the batter is too liquid, stir in coconut flour, one teaspoon at a time, until it becomes firmer. If it's too dry, add water, a tablespoon at a time. As mentioned above, your goal is to have a smooth dough that you can shape with your hands.
Store the leftovers in an airtight container on the counter for up to two days. If your kitchen is hot or if you want to store them for longer, store them in the fridge for up to 5 days. Remove them from the fridge an hour before enjoying them to allow them to soften.
