Snacks—both a fun part of the day and a potential stressor. You want something luscious and indulgent, but you also don’t want to blow all of your healthy-eating habits for the day. And you want something that will leave you feeling energized, not in a sugar-crash stupor. You know there’s nothing in the vending machine that ticks all these boxes. What’s a hungry healthy snacker to do?

Enter the “fat bomb.” These trendy little treats are all over Insta, and for good reason. They’re a simple and super-delicious and satisfying way to kill the afternoon munchies and add a bit more healthy fat to your day.

For this fast, easy recipe, Clean Plates Collective member Mark Sisson, author of The Keto Reset Diet, combined fat-burning, disease-fighting superfood matcha powder with nutrient-rich tahini, so you get a whole lot of energizing bang for your buck. And did we mention that their fudge-like texture and touch of sweetness make them feel like a treat? Fire up that food processor and get ready to dig in.
