Play Dough

2 C. Flour
4 tsp Cream of Tartar
1 C. Salt
2-4 packages of kool-aid (depending on how deep you want the color. I normally use 4 no matter what color I make)

Stir ingredients together in a large pot. Turn stove on medium high and add:
2 C. Water
2 T. Oil (I usually use Canola)
Use a whip to make sure you have all the major flour lumps out, and all the flour from the edges stirred in. Switch to a heavy heat-proof scraper or a wooden spoon and start stirring. DO NOT STOP! It will start to stick on the bottom, and you want to get up as much as you can and continue to turn it over. As it cooks it will go from glossy to matte, and you want to try and get the glossy parts down by the heat when you're stirring. Once it forms a nice ball smash it down to make sure there are no more sticky parts inside and then dump it on a counter. This will take (depending on the stove and pot) anywhere from 5-10 minutes.
Knead until cool.

This playdough keeps FOREVER, store in a ziplock bag. The kool-aid once mixed in and cooked doesn't stain hands or clothes, and it gives the dough a great smell.
