RECIPE OF THE MONTH   
                 FEBRUARY 2003

Undoubtedly the best body butter we've ever seen!  Absorbs into the skin without that greasy layer, leaving the skin repaired and healthy.  
It's even a cinch to make.

Makes approx. 8 ozs.

Ingredients:
  2 ozs cocoa butter (weighed)
  2 ozs natural shea butter
          (weighed)
  2 ozs mango butter (weighed)
  1 teaspoon wheat germ oil
  3 teaspoons apricot kernel oil
  1 teaspoon beeswax pearls
  Mango fragrance oil (or any
        fragrance oil)
  1/4 teaspoon Vit E. (optional, as
           a preservative)

Directions:

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.

Note:  This is a firmer body butter.
If you prefer a softer butter, the
consistency can be adjusted
by decreasing the amount of
beeswax and/or cocoa butter.  Or
just adding a drizzle of liquid
glycerin.
