Oatmeal, Honey, & Goat's Milk Soap

Ingredients:

    1/4 cup ground oatmeal [rolled oats, not instant oatmeal]
    1 teaspoon organic honey
    1 teaspoon powdered goat's milk
    1 teaspoon vanilla fragrance OR oatmeal, milk & honey fragrance [optional]

Mold:

4 four-ounce molds

Instructions:

Slice up soap base into small cubes and melt. If not using goat's milk base, add the powdered goat's milk. Just before it's fully melted add oatmeal and honey. Stir well.

Allow soap to harden in fridge, freezer, or remain at room temperature. Remove from molds. Make sure soap is at room temperature before wrapping. Wrap in cling wrap and label.

To make Oatmeal, Honey, & Goat's Milk with the oatmeal suspended throughout the soap, you must stir in the oatmeal, turn off the crock pot OR double boiler, and stir occasionally for approximately 5-10 minutes while the soap mixture thickens.
