Tips
- Temperature Matters: Always use room temperature ingredients to ensure smooth, easy mixing and a uniform texture.
- Customize Your Heat: Adjust the buffalo sauce quantity to control the spice level—more sauce for heat lovers, less for milder palates.
- Mixing Technique: Use a fork or spatula to mix ingredients thoroughly, ensuring even distribution of flavors.
- Uniform Sizing: Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to create consistent-sized fat bombs for even chilling and serving.
- Chill for Success: The 30-minute refrigeration is crucial for setting the texture and allowing flavors to meld together.
- Storage Hack: These fat bombs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making them perfect for advance meal prep.
- Garnish Option: Sprinkle extra chopped green onions or a dash of ranch seasoning on top before serving for an extra flavor boost.
