    Mint Chocolate Whipped Body Butter

    of cocoa butter, mango or shea butter (you can also substitute another 1/2 cup cocoa butter. It will be a smidge less “light” when whipped up!), coconut oil (find coconut oil here), of jojoba or a mild olive oil (almond oil can also be used but it will decrease shelf life because it is more vulnerable to oxidation), 1-2 teaspoons peppermint essential oil (depending on preference), pure cocoa powder (if you would prefer a “white chocolate” version that is not a bronzer, substitute arrowroot powder or non-GMO cornstarch), naturally derived vitamin E (optional)
