Mint Chocolate Scented Playdough

Playdough Craft Supplies:
* 2 cups flour
* 1 1/2 cups boiling water
* 1/2 cup salt
* 2 tablespoons cream of tartar
* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
* Loose, Craft Glitter {I used about 2 tablespoons – add more/less as you feel like}
* One package of Duncan Hines Frosting Creations – Mint Chocolate Flavor

Directions:
* In a large mixing bowl – combine your flour, salt, cream of tartar, glitter and oil.
* Measure out your hot water and add in your Duncan Hines Frosting Creations pack. Then carefully stir in the hot water mixture to the flour mixture. {Should ONLY be done by adults}
* Then start stirring with a cooking spoon until the dough starts getting sticky/cools down a bit.
*Once cool enough to handle – knead until it’s a smooth playdough consistency. Then play!

Store playdough in air tight container when not using and of course – although this recipe smells amazing, it’s just for pretend. {sides that – it tastes gross when ingested} Please always supervise children while they play. If your dough is too sticky, add some more flour and knead through, until you get consistency you like.
