Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Salt
- 1 cup Cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Cream of tartar
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, cocoa powder, and cream of tartar. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a medium saucepan, combine the vegetable oil, water, and vanilla extract (if using). Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is warm but not boiling.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the saucepan, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Continue stirring as the mixture thickens and forms a dough-like consistency.
Once the mixture pulls away from the sides of the pan and forms a smooth, pliable dough, remove it from the heat. Be careful as the dough will be hot at this stage.
Transfer the dough to a clean surface or bowl and let it cool for a few minutes until it is safe to handle.
Knead the dough with your hands for 1-2 minutes to ensure it is smooth and well combined.
Store the chocolate playdough in an airtight container or plastic bag to keep it from drying out. It can typically be stored for up to 2 weeks.
