The World’s Best Homemade Play-Doh

5 Stars 4 Stars 3 Stars 2 Stars 1 Star 5 from 4 reviews

Description

This is literally the world’s BEST homemade play-doh! Soft and silky smooth, everyone will love playing with it!


Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose white flour
2 tablespoons cream of tartar
1 cup + 2 tablespoons table salt
34 tablespoons cooking oil (canola, coconut, etc.); start with 3 and if the dough is a little dry, slowly work in a little more.
3 cups hot water
Optional: Food coloring


Instructions

Add the flour, cream of tartar, salt, and 3 tablespoons cooking oil to a large pot. Whisk together. Add water and whisk until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the dough forms a soft ball. Be sure not to overcook–it will be too dry. Remove from heat and then scrape together the mixture into a ball. Place in a Ziploc bag or cover with plastic wrap and allow to cool slightly.

Divide into portions and use food coloring to color as desired (if you want to make it all the same color, add the food coloring with the water.) For very vibrant colors, use more than you think you’ll need. When done playing with the dough, store in airtight containers or Ziploc bags.
