Homemade Play Dough Fun

While visiting Heather’s blog, I came across a recipe for Chocolate & Peanut Butter Play Dough, and I couldn’t resist giving it a shot. I mean, we have made plenty of homemade play dough over the years, but CHOCOLATE and PEANUT BUTTER?! My two FAVORITE food groups!

So we dug in (literally).

It’s super easy to make. Simply mix together these ingredients:

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • about 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons dutch cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons powdered milk

Look at little Rey’s face. I think he had MUCH more fun eating it than playing with it.
A boy after my own heart!

My 4-year-old has that cheesy grin down pat, doesn’t she?

Little organizational tip thrown in here. Have you ever been to Sam’s Club and seen those big plastic “barrels” that pretzel rods are sold in? Recycled, they make great storage tubs for such things as play-doh utensils, as shown above.

    Thanks for trying my crazy concoction! I’m glad that it worked well for you guys. Your kids are ADORABLE!!!! Oh and your dough didn’t come out nearly as gross as mine, I used dark cocoa and I bet that was my problem.
