Ingredients
  • 4 Cups Flour
  • 1 Cup Salt
  • 4 cups water
  • 4 tablespoons oil
  • ½ cup cream of tartar
  • food coloring or Kool Aid
Instructions
  1. In a large saucepan set the heat to medium-low and add flour, salt and cream of tarter.
  2. If you want to use Kool Aid this is the best time to add it in.
  3. Give that a mix and then add water.
  4. This will become a big nasty blob- just keep stirring for a few minutes.
  5. Eventually the blog will start to look more like cookie dough. It will pull away easily from the sides of the pan and it looks like a dough that can be handled and not a big sticky mess.
  6. Remove from heat and dump the dough onto a piece of parchment paper.
  7. Let it cool until you can handle it.
  8. If you want to make several colors just divide it up on the paper and dot each lump with the color of your choice or the Kool Aid packet of your choice.
  9. Knead the dough well until all the color is incorporated and it is smooth.
  10. Add any glitter or fragrance and again knead well.
  11. I actually think the texture is perfect the next day but you can play with it right away if you like.
  12. Put in an air tight container or a Ziploc to store.
