Solid Soap · NaOH · 100 g oil load · 5% superfat · 2 views · 0 saves
Did not add any cocoa powder this time, curious to see how dark the FO's get. Sort of regretting it though, I hope it gets much darker. Slow moving recipe, I had way too much time, which is great because now I can use beef tallow for swirls! Also made little dinosaurs and hearts with the extra batter.
