Bath Cookies Print E-mail

For those who love to bake, these cookies are fun, fragrant, and

nonfattening; in fact they are good for your skin. They consist of skin-softening sea salt, vitamin E oil, and eggs. Simply drop one or two of these cookie tablets into a warm bath and relax.

 

2 cups finely ground sea salt

1/2 cup baking soda

1/2 cup cornstarch

2 tablespoons light oil

1 teaspoon vitamin E oil ( I buy capsule and squeeze the oil out of it )

2 eggs

5-6 drops essential oil of your choice- chamomile is nice

 

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Mix together the ingredients. Take a teaspoon of the dough and roll it gently into a ball ( about 1- inch in diameter ). Continue doing this with all the dough and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. ( You can decorate the cookies with clove buds, anise seeds, or dried citrus peel if you wish. ) Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes, until they are lightly browned ( do not overbake ). Allow the cookies to cool completely. To use: Drop 1 to 2 cookies into a warm bath and allow to dissolve. Store in decorative tin marked BATH COOKIES.

 

YIELD: 24 cookies. Enough for 12 baths.

Wise Tips

Traditional herb gardens were often grown in the shape of a circle reflecting the concept of holism with an all-inclusive never-ending design. Sometimes an old cartwheel was used, so the spokes naturally created separate sections, with different herbs growing in each space. A small circular chamomile lawn was often grown in the center.
