Take a carb free dip to your eyeballs in chocolate

[Heidi3]

Newmein2006 posted a recipe (I have cleared this with her to bring out to the main board) for a chocolate bath ...and I am telling you ..it is fantastic and should not be only in the woman's forum ..I made one for my old man as well and he melted into a puddle enjoying it ...so here you go ...her recipe and my modification (why cant I just follow a recipe??)


Melted Chocolate Malt Bubble Bath

Ingredients

1 cup powdered milk

2 tbsp. cocoa powder

2 capfuls unscented or scent of your choice bubble bath

Directions:

Mix milk and cocoa together. Pour half of mixture under running bathwater. Follow with one capful of bubble bath. Repeat, and get ready to relax in chocolate heaven!

Benefits

Milk hydrates the skin, while cocoa tones and oxygenates, leaving skin glowing. You'll smell great, too!

my modified version

1/2 cup cocoa powder dissolved in hot water
1 quart of heavy cream (still cheaper than a spa!!!)
1/4 cup lavendar bath bubbles
a few drops of lavendar
1/4 cup coconut oil

all I can say is OMG this is amazing and if you do not try it then you are really missing out!!!! the scent stays with you all day but did not make me hungry at all ..it actually left me feeling very content ...can you absorb a chocolate buzz through the skin I wonder???

Blah. I don't have a huge tubbie. I should have taken all the ingredients up to my mom's house (it seems totally worth the four hour drive) and done it in her tub - it's with the clawed feet - looks like the one in the pic.

OH -- How FUN!!! I cant wait to enjoy this. I love my baths!!! Heidi, where do you get the coconut oil?

I am thinking this would be sooo great in the hot tub, on a cold winter night, like floating in HOt chocolate. perhaps I could try it a time before I am due to drain and clean the tub. Enjoy the chocolate dip, then draina nd clean the tub.. Ofcourse it would use a whole lot more ingridents, but there is a whole lot more room for company too!!!!!

Re: Take a carb free dip to your eyeballs in chocolate

scoff if you will at the color of that water ..but my dear friends it may look gross (and II agree that brown looks kind of disgusting...)...but it smells and feels like heaven and in person the tub does look like a mocha grande.....this is such a nice solitary (or together) pleasure ...in fact I am going to make another one tomorrow ....just because I can ....healthier and cheaper ..much more fun than any junk food could be.. ... lasts as long as you want it to ..and the added bonus is your skin feels and smells so good for a long long time... ..it is really nice....

I get my coconut oil in Indian markets in Canada ..but any Indian market or a Caribbean market or you can I am sure find it online..do not buy the organic virgin for the tub that would be too expensive!!!

if you can not find coconut oil use sweet almond oil or any bath oil...but I can not in my wildest dreams imagine living with out any coconut oil in the house

Oh, how I evny your clawfoot tub. We had one in Ohio...I wish we could have hijacked it when we left. *sigh*

If it weren't for the oils I think I would have to drink it all while laying in it/

Thanks for sharing, Heidi...it's a great way to take care of you and the skin your in!

Chocolate always helped me with PMS and speeding up TOM - Maybe the chocolate bath will, too. Will have to try in a few days!! But... does it make your skin browner? I always thought chocolate was notorious for staining things.
