The last playdough recipe that I posted was great but I wasn’t digging the idea of having to boil it on the stove each time. I’m thrilled with this recipe I found via Infarrantly Creative that takes all of 5-10 minutes to make and no stove-top is required. Â
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/4 cup salt
- 2 packages unsweetened Kool-Aid mix {you can use one but you’ll get a darker color and sweeter smell of using 2 packages}
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 1/2 tablespoons oil
What you do:
- Mix flour, salt and Kool-Aid well in a large bowl.
- Add boiling water and oil and then mix with a wooden spoon until it sticks together.
- When cooled and you can handle the dough mix the rest by hand blending all the color in so it is a nice even color
Notes:
* It might be pretty sticky from the kool-aid just keep adding flour until it’s a nice consistency. Or use food coloring and use essential oil or vanilla for scent.
* Knead it on a piece of wax or parchment paper for easy clean up.
* Keeps for about 3 months when stored in an airtight container.

You’re welcome Erin! Have fun!
I made the boiled kind when I was teaching pre-school. Instead of vanilla flavoring I used vinegar to discourage my students ( 18 months to 3 years) from eating it. If it smells bad they wont put it in their mouths…
Thanks for sharing! About time I made some for my 2 year old!
