Ingredients

dry ingredients
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup salt
  • 2 tablespoons cream of tartar
  • 3 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons ginger
  • 2 teaspoons cloves
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom
wet ingredients
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Put the dry ingredients in a medium saucepan and whisk to combine.
  2. Add the water and oil, and stir together.
  3. Cook on medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the dough comes away from the sides of the pan and forms a ball in the center, a silicone spoon works really well for this. It will look lumpy, but don't worry.
  4. Turn the warm dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it is smooth and not sticky. Lightly flour your hands if necessary.
  5. Store the playdough in an airtight baggie or container.
