Title: Soap V--Milk
Categories: Soap Gift
Yield: 1 Recipe

8	oz	Cocoa butter, by weight
5	oz	Palm butter, by weight
3	oz	Castor oil, by weight
2 3/16	oz	Lye, by weight
1	c	Cold milk (2% from frig OK)
1	c	Water
1	tb	Essential oil OR:
2		Chamomile tea bags, dry
2		Jasmine tea bags, dry

Sort of a traditional and blender soap combination. The fats are expensive, but milk allows for about 12 bars, vs. only 6 bars of the same recipe without milk.

Fats: 100 degree range Add the Lye/water/milk mixture to the fats and stir about 5 minutes. Add the fragrant oil and put the soap mixture into a blender. Process about 30 seconds, or until the mixture looks smooth and a uniform color. It will not trace. Pour it into the molds.
