Cold, rainy days call for something special so we whipped up a batch of chocolate playdough. Be warned though, once you make it your hands will smell like yummy chocolate all day. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing. Seeing it in that bowl makes me think of chocolate pudding......another yummy thing!
So, you think you want to make some? It's probably one of the easiest playdoughs I have ever made.
Here's how:
1 1/4 c flour
1/2 c cocoa
1/2 c salt
2 tsp cream of tartar
Combine and mix ingredients thoroughly. Once mixed, add in 1 1/2 T cooking oil and 1 c boiling water. Mix and knead until you have a nice soft ball of dough.
Store in either a plastic baggie or airtight container. I always keep mine in the refrigerator,I don't know if it really prolongs the lifespan or not, but I do know that I have playdough that is about 1.5 years old now and it's as good now as it was the day it was made.
Who could resist a chocolate heart made by their favorite kid?
that is fun. I will have to try this.
