This recipe calls for melted coconut oil. If you are unfamiliar with this ingredient, you will be looking for a solid, not a liquid. Though solid at normal room temperature, coconut oil turns into a liquid at 78 degrees Fahrenheit.

To prevent the taste of the oil from overwhelming the buttery flavors, this recipe calls for a neutral oil. Grapeseed oil is one possible option. It derives from the seeds that are left behind after making wine. This is an example of reducing waste by repurposing a byproduct previously thought useless, turning it into a valuable resource. Look for grapeseed oil marketed as expeller-pressed or cold-pressed. No solvents are used in these extraction processes.
