What you will need?
2 cups plain flour
1 cup salt
4 tsp. cream of tartar
4 tsp. silver or gold glitter
2 cups water
4 tsp. food colouring
2 tbsp. oil
Method
- Pour all dry ingredients, flour, salt, glitter and cream of tartar together in a saucepan.
- Add water, food colouring and oil to dry ingredients.
- I use a whisk before heating as I find this helps remove lumps and blends the ingredients well.
- Cook over medium heat constantly stirring until it becomes a thick blob.
- Then turn out onto a clean surface and knead into a smooth ball. Be careful the play dough will be very hot!
- Use a little bit of flour if the play dough is sticky.
- Store in a plastic zip lock bag or air tight container.
