Homemade Playdough

Ingredients:

1 1/2 C All Purpose Flour

3 TBSP Baking Powder

1 TBSP Vegetable Oil

1 C Boiling Water

Food Coloring

First combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix together.

Next add the oil to the dry ingredients. Stir together. Then microwave the water for 2 minutes or until boiling. Add food coloring to water. Stir the water then add to the dry ingredients. When you do this, the mixture should fizz and bubble a bit. Stir everything together until it forms a dough. If the dough is too sticky, ad a little more flour to the mixture.

Finally, knead the playdough until it is smooth. *** Be careful, the dough may be a little warm due to the boiling water, but cools once it is kneaded.***
