I found a peppermint Whoopie pie recipe on pinterest that I was dying to try. I decided to save it for next year. I had so much going on and time was running short. But, I now had about 4 boxes of candy canes sitting here and I wanted to do something with them. I went through my pantry and grabbed olive oil, sugar, peppermint extract and Viola! Peppermint Sugar hand scrub! It came out great. I jarred them up, wrapped them in tissue paper, made a cute label and gave them out to the teachers and specialists at the school! I kept a few for me too! It really does make your hands feel super smooth and smells delicious too!
Peppermint Sugar Hand Scrub:
4 cups granulated sugar
36 crushed candy canes (aprox 4 boxes, I put mine in the food processor)
2 cups extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons peppermint extract
Mix ingredients in a large bowl. Depending on the texture you want you can add a little more olive oil.
Spoon into jar with a lid, mason jars work best! Add a canning label and your done!
