- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons cocoa butter melted

- 1 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon
- 1 1/2 tablespoons ginger
- 1 tablespoons nutmeg
- 1 tablespoons ground cloves

Recipe Notes
You can also use all coconut oil but the cocoa butter is very moisturizing and keeps the scrub together well. Make sure the coconut oil and cocoa butter are melted before assembling and be careful because they may get hot.
