The secret to this recipe??
Two things:First,Cream of Tarter… it’s what helps the dough stay together. and Second,not a lot of salt… all that salt dries out your dough!
Ready to make it? Here we go:
Ingredients:
1 C Flour
1 C Water
1/4 C Salt
1 TBSP Vegetable Oil
2 tsp Cream of Tarter
Food Coloring (actual coloring or a kool-aid packet will do)
Sparkles (If you wanna be a fun mom!)
Sauce Pan and Wooden Spoon
Little helping hands.
Pour in all ingredients. (No particular order… each time is different for us.. and it always turns out the same.)
(I used the NEON food coloring… cause everything is better neon… but feel free to use a koolaid packet sitting in your cupboard.)
Stir until everything is mixed well.
Once the mixture is (mostly) clump free. Heat over MEDIUM heat.
Stir. Don’t stop stirring. After a few minutes it will start to clump up.
Stir,Stir Stir.Just keep stirring until the Play Dough is formed. It will form one big clump
Remove from heat,and knead by hand. (This is my favorite part! It’s so warm and squishy! hah) Note:I forgot to add sparkles in the mix at the beginning,so I just kneaded the sparkles in and it turned out just fine.
Once cooled it’s ready to go. Package it up for some party favors or stocking stuffers. (Baby food containers work GREAT!
Or grab your cookie cutters,plastic scissors,rolling pin,etc.. and let your toddler go to town.
