Preparation

Step 1

In a microwave safe measuring cup, add all the ingredients except the fragrance oil.

Melt, in 1 minute intervals in high until all the ingredients have liquefied.

Continue to heat on low for another 2-3 minutes (do not boil). The continued heating will help prevent the butters from becoming grainy once solid.

Remove from microwave and stir. Let set to cool for a few hours and stir again.

Before the mixture sets (overnight), add your fragrance oil and stir, even whip, to incorporate the scent.

Spoon into jars or tins and label.
