Charlie and I had a blast playing "Chocolate Town," on like the fiftieth day of being cooped up inside in our latest North Texas cold snap!
I'm sure you and your kiddos will come up with your own neato spin... Imaginations can run wild, especially with a large assortment of cookiecutters and good cooking utensils (none of which I have, LOL!)...
Yummy-smelling (non-edible, though!) recipe for Chocolate Playdoh follows! :tup:
Chocolate Playdoh
1 1/4 c flour
1/2 c cocoa powder
1/2 c salt
1/2 tablespoon cream of tartar
1 1/2 tablespoons cooking oil
1 c boiling water
Mix the dry ingredients. Add the oil and boiling water. Stir quickly, mixing well. When starting to cool, knead with hands to completely blend. Ours had a brownie-batterish look, feel & smell! :gimme:

Not really *eating* - just *pretending*, don't worry!
