Ready In
- Bring the water to a boil in a sauce pan; remove from heat and set aside.
- Whisk together the flour, salt, cream of tartar, and soft drink mix in a large bowl; stir the vegetable oil into the flour mixture using a spoon, not a whisk. Pour the hot water into the bowl and continue stirring. When the dough is cool enough to handle, turn it onto a lightly-floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Store unused portions in refrigerator.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note
- You may want to wear rubber gloves while kneading.

this recipe works only if you add at least 1 extra cup of flour to get it to the right consistency! then it is perfect play dough!

We halved the recipe and ended up with about a softball size amount of play dough. Followed the recipe with the exception of the flavored drink packets. All we had was gel food coloring and only...

I followed directions exactly and it is PERFECT. It reminds me of the old "silly putty". Of course you won't encourage children to eat it, but if they get curious it won't hurt them. Made thi...

I omit the drink mix and just use food coloring. I like to use gel decorator coloring because it makes really bold colors.
