  • 1/2 Cup Epsom salt

  2. When you achieve the desired consistency place tablespoon-sized drops on waxed paper and allow to dry thoroughly.

Recipe Notes

I used a cookie scoop to make the tabs. I flattened the prepared scoops just a bit so they would fit in the dishwasher detergent compartment on my dishwasher.
