Ingredients

For 1 Batch(es)

Recipe

8 ounces virgin coconut oil, chilled (oil must be solid)
15 drops essential oil, such as lavender, lemongrass or sweet orange (optional)

Coconut Oil Whip Directions

Place the chilled coconut oil in a 4-cup container.
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the oil for 5 to 7 minutes until light and very creamy in appearance.
Add essential oil, if using, and whip for an additional minute to disperse evenly.
Spoon into a container with a tight-fitting lid and store in a cool, dry place.
An ambient temperature of 76° or above will result in the whip deflating and liquefying, which only affects the texture.
(Note: Avoid getting water in the container. Use a spoon or cosmetic spatula to scoop out.)
