  • ¾ cup cocoa butter
  • 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

Family notebook

This page has a large X through the entire entry. The title is faint and partially obscured, so “Cocoa Butter Body Butter” is an editorial name. Original measurements are retained. Her daughter reports that written notebook projects were generally made, but the reason this version was crossed out is unknown.

Formulation note

This is an oil-only blend with no added water. The consistency depends on cooling and blending; use clean, dry equipment and avoid burns when melting or handling hot oils. Not a tested cosmetic formula.
