Keto Cream Cheese Truffles

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

These keto fat bomb cream cheese truffles are decadent bites full of chocolate, coffee, and rum flavors. Instead of using chocolate we’re using unsweetened cocoa powder and cream cheese to make up the bulk of the truffle. You won’t have to worry about finding a specialty chocolate brand to make these. There’s also no cooking involved, so they are incredibly easy to make.

You will need to plan ahead so that they are properly chilled before serving. If they are not cold then the truffles can be a bit soft. Softness does nothing to change the flavor, of course.

To add the coffee flavor I chose to use instant coffee. If you prefer to use brewed coffee or espresso just omit the instant coffee crystals and replace the water with your coffee of choice. You can also substitute the rum extract for real rum, or other flavors of extract that you have on hand. Peppermint or orange would be fun to try.

They will need to be refrigerated until serving, and they are really at their best when kept cold.
