  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/4 cup salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 1 pack Kool-Aid or 4-5 drops of food coloring

Directions

  1. Combine water and food coloring in a pot and bring to a boil.
  2. While waiting for the water to boil, combine your dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
  3. Remove from heat and add the oil.
  4. Slowly stir in the dry ingredients. Continue mixing until the playdough forms a ball.
  5. When the playdough is cool enough, knead it until it is no longer sticky. Flour your hands first to prevent sticking.
