Directions

Step 1

Place 820 grams tallow in a double boiler on low heat until fully melted.

Step 2

Stir in 112 grams avocado oil until combined.

Step 3

Let the mixture cool until it is warm, not hot. You want the temperature to be around 120F before adding 12 grams Vitamin E and 12 grams Victory Glory Fragrance Oil. Stir to blend the ingredients.

Step 4

Put the mixture in the fridge until it becomes opaque and semi-solid, like soft butter. Do not let it get rock hard.

Step 5

Whip with a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.

Step 6

Spoon or pipe into 4 clean jars, about 239 grams per jar.

Step 7

Let jars sit at room temperature until fully set.

Step 8

Place a lid on each jar.

To Use

Massage a small amount of body butter onto clean, dry skin, focusing on areas prone to dryness such as hands, elbows, knees, and feet. For best results, apply after bathing or showering to help lock in moisture.
