Soften the base: Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for 15–20 minutes. This helps it blend smoothly without lumps.
Melt the oil: Gently melt the coconut oil in the microwave or on the stove until just liquid.
Don’t overheat.
Mix the fats: In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add peanut butter and mix until creamy and uniform.
Sweeten and flavor: Add powdered erythritol or allulose, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix well.
Taste and adjust sweetness. Remember, flavors mellow when chilled.
Adjust texture: Slowly pour in the melted coconut oil while mixing. The mixture should be thick yet pourable.
If it’s too thin, chill for 5–10 minutes and stir again.
Add mix-ins (optional): Fold in sugar-free chocolate chips, chopped peanuts, or a dash of cinnamon for extra flavor and crunch.
Portion: Spoon or pipe the mixture into a silicone mini muffin mold or ice cube tray. Aim for 1–2 tablespoons per cavity.
Chill: Freeze for 30–45 minutes until firm. Then pop out of the mold.
Finish (optional): Dip or drizzle with melted sugar-free dark chocolate.
Chill again to set.
Serve: Enjoy straight from the fridge for a creamy bite or from the freezer for a firmer, fudgier texture.
