Home made Play Dough recipe

It is me again!I was so busy that didn't have time to post again but wanted to make something special for you this time ♥Here is the recipe I use to make play dough at home, my son loves to help and then to play with it!




I also use it to make party favors (this time I used some Yo gabba inspired labels)Ok, ok, back to the recipe!You will need:♥  3 cups of flour♥  3 cups water♥  1 1/2 cups of salt ♥  2 tbsp vegetable oil♥  2 or 3 tbsp cream of tartar (they say it make it more elastic, I have added more and I love the results)♥  food coloring (I use gel colors, you can use any brand available at your store)





Now, set your stove to medium-low heat.

Mix flour, water, salt, oil and cream of tartar in a saucepan and cook.
Stir occasionally, it will look like a hard pudding around the next 6 to 8 minutes.
When it starts forming like a soft dough you can turn on the heat.
Use some parchment or waked paper and pour the mix on it.
Knead until it cools (just double check that is not extremely hot when you start kneading!)
Separate in around 8 parts (more or less depending on how much of each color you want)
add some drops of coloring gel, knead a little bit more and put in airtight containers.
You can use ziplocs, too.



Let me know if you try it!
