Description
A quick and fun recipe for making safe, edible play dough using just three ingredients, perfect for kids to mold and shape.
Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (or any nut/seed butter)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup powdered milk (or milk powder)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Space: Clear a clean, flat surface to work on and gather all your materials and mixing tools: a mixing bowl, spatula, and measuring cups.
- Combine Peanut Butter and Sugar: In the mixing bowl, add the peanut butter and gradually mix in the powdered sugar, using a spatula or your hands to combine.
- Incorporate Powdered Milk: Slowly sprinkle in the powdered milk and knead the mixture with your hands until it forms a smooth, pliable dough.
- Adjust Consistency: If the dough is too sticky, add more powdered sugar. If it’s too dry, add a little water or more peanut butter until you reach your desired consistency.
- Play Time!: Let your little ones mold and shape the dough, encouraging them to explore textures and create fun shapes.
Notes
For variations, add food coloring, flavors like vanilla or cocoa, or textures like sprinkles. Use sun butter for a nut-free alternative.
