Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Chilling Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (no sugar added)
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or your preferred low-carb sweetener)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Optional toppings: sugar-free chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Before you begin, make sure your cream cheese is softened. You can leave it at room temperature for about 30 minutes or microwave it for about 10-15 seconds until soft but not melted. Measure out all your ingredients to have them ready to go.
- Whip the Cream:
- In a large mixing bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream on medium-high speed until it forms stiff peaks. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to over-whip the cream, as it can turn into butter.
- Combine Cream Cheese and Peanut Butter:
- In a separate bowl, add the softened cream cheese, natural peanut butter, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix these ingredients with the electric mixer until they are smooth and well combined. This mixture should be creamy and free of lumps.
- Fold in the Whipped Cream:
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. Use a spatula to fold in the cream, being careful not to deflate the fluffy texture you created. Mix until the cream is fully incorporated, and the mixture is light and airy.
- Chill the Fluff:
- Once your fluff is thoroughly mixed, transfer it to a serving bowl or individual cups. Place the fluff in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill and set. This step allows the flavors to meld together and enhances the texture of the fluff.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- After chilling, your Peanut Butter Fat Bomb Fluff is ready to be enjoyed. You can serve it as is, or top it with sugar-free chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flavor and texture. This fluff can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Tips for the Perfect Peanut Butter Fat Bomb Fluff:
- Choose Your Sweetener Wisely: If you prefer a different sweetener, feel free to substitute it for the powdered erythritol. Just be sure to adjust the amount based on the sweetness level of your chosen sweetener.
- Experiment with Flavors: While this recipe calls for peanut butter, you can easily switch it up by using almond butter or even a flavored nut butter for a different taste.
- Keep it Cold: This fluff tastes best when it’s chilled, so keep it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve. It’s also a refreshing treat to enjoy on a warm day.
