Description
I intensely rich, this Vanilla Whipped Body Butter is a treat for your skin. It's made by whipping melted cocoa butter, jojoba oil, and avocado butter until smooth. Vanilla Select Fragrance Oil adds a classic scent that pairs perfectly with cocoa butter.

Instructions
Vanilla Whipped Body Butter Project
This simple recipe creates a butter that's fluffy to the touch and melts on the skin. The combination of cocoa butter and Vanilla Select Fragrance Oil smells absolutely delicious.
Ingredients
Three 8 oz. Bail Jars
8 oz. Cocoa Butter Wafers
6 oz. Avocado Butter
1 oz. Jojoba Oil
4 mL Vanilla Select Fragrance Oil
1 oz. Arrowroot Powder
Instructions
| 1 |
Place 8 ounces of cocoa butter wafers and 1 ounce of jojoba oil into a heat-safe container. Melt in the microwave using 30-60 second bursts. Be careful when removing the container - it may be quite hot. |
| 2 |
Allow the butter mixture to cool to around 90° F. |
| 3 |
Add 6 ounces of avocado butter to a large mixing bowl. Use a hand or stand mixer to whip the butter until completely smooth. Add about 1/4 of the melted cocoa butter and continue to whip for about 30 seconds. |
| 4 |
Continue adding small amounts of the melted cocoa butter until it's gone, whipping between each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is thoroughly mixed. |
| 5 |
Add 4 mL of Vanilla Select Fragrance Oil and mix thoroughly. Then, fold in 1 ounce of arrowroot powder with a spatula or spoon. Once it's mostly incorporated, use the hand or stand mixer to fully mix. |
| 6 |
To achieve a fluffier texture (rather than a creamy texture) place the bowl in the fridge for about 30 minutes and allow the butter to cool to about 70-75° F. Remove from the fridge and whip again for about 30-60 seconds. |
| 6 |
Spoon the butter into the bail jars, and enjoy! Store it in a dry, cool place. If you live in a very hot climate, you may want to store this butter in the fridge to prevent melting and to retain the fluffy texture. |
