Heres one I use all the time that I got off of Kathy Miller's website (http://www.millersoap.com)
*Rachael's "Tried and True" Recipe (Thanks! to Rachael Levitan)
48 ounces Crisco (a 3-pound can)
21 ounces Soybean Oil (or Olive, Canola, or a blend of these)
18 ounces Coconut Oil
28 ounces of cold water
12 ounces lye crystals
Temperatures: 100 degrees
Trace by hand should be in about 20 minutes. Cure about 24-48 hours before cutting. To make an oatmeal soap add 1/4 cup ground oatmeal at light trace
