Cooked Play Dough - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 c. flour
1 c. salt
4 tsp. cream of tartar
2 Tbsp. oil
2 c. water
few drops food coloring
waxed paper

Preparation

In a medium saucepan, combine dry ingredients; stir in oil, water and food coloring.
Cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until mixture pulls away from pan.
Turn out onto waxed-paper-covered counter or tabletop (to avoid staining surface) and knead until smooth.
The dough will keep up to a couple of weeks in an airtight container and does not require refrigeration. For texture variations, add dry coffee grounds, sand, glitter and dry Jell-O.
