Homemade Play Dough

I love the simple fun of playing with play dough. My mama used to make play dough for me and my friends and we would sit at the kitchen bar for hours making play dough pizzas and cherry pies and then daring each other to take a bite.

We made some of our own today and it was easy as pie (the eating of pie, not the making of) and spent a good while quietly revisiting this childhood favorite.

Mama's Recipe

One cup flour

1/2 cup salt

2 Tsp Cream of Tartar

1 Tbs Cooking oil
Food coloring

One cup water

Mix the the dry ingredients in a bowl, stir in the wet and heat on the stove for about 3 minutes.

Then quickly knead it a few times, you are set!
