Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 ounces coconut oil (like this)
• 2 ounces avocado oil (like this - can be replaced with grapeseed, sweet almond, or sunflower oil)
• 1.25 ounces cocoa butter (like this)
• 1 tablespoon ground coffee beans
• Seeds of one vanilla bean (like this) ( - optional)
• Ice (for cooling cocoa butter after it has melted)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Measure the cocoa butter and coconut oil into an oven proof dish, bowl, or loaf pan and place in the oven. Leave until butter has melted (this will only take a few minutes). Carefully remove from the oven.
• Fill a large bowl with ice and place the bowl (or pan) with the melted cocoa butter and coconut oil into the ice. Add the avocado oil and stir to combine. Leave to cool for a few minutes.
• Dont forget to tun off the oven!
• Let cocoa butter/coconut oil mixture cool until it is slightly warm, but not hot (about 100 degrees). Be careful not to allow the oil/butter mixture to cool completely as it may harden and it should have a thick liquid consistency when adding the sugar.
• Begin adding the sugar a little at a time, stirring until it is thoroughly incorporated.
• Add the ground coffee and stir to distribute evenly. Then add the vanilla bean seeds, if using.
• One you have incorporated all of the sugar and coffee, your scrub is complete. It will continue to thicken as it sets.
• If you would like to make the sugar scrub have more of a whipped texture and appearance, you may use a handheld beater to beat the mixture a few times as the cocoa butter is cooling. You will need to do this reasonable quickly so it does not harden before you have the chance to put it in a jar.
• Package in a pretty jar and add a label.
