Peeps Playdough
A taste-safe Peeps playdough recipe.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 5 Peeps *Use 6 chick peeps if not using the bunnies.
- 5 tbsp cornstarch
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl until it becomes liquid. This usually takes about 30 seconds in the microwave. Be careful not to touch the oil when still hot.
- Take 5 peeps of the same color and remove the chocolate eyes. If using the Peeps chicks, use 6 chicks (they are slightly smaller than the bunnies).
- Place the peeps in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave them for 30 seconds to soften them.
- Add 4 tablespoons of cornstarch to the melted coconut oil and softened peeps.
- Mix everything together until it starts forming a ball. It will still be very sticky at this stage.
- Add 1 additional tablespoon of cornstarch and continue mixing until it forms a dough-like consistency.
- Sprinkle some cornstarch on your work surface to prevent sticking. Transfer the dough onto the surface and knead it until smooth.
- Once the dough is smooth and pliable, roll it out into the desired shape.

Notes
- Repeat these steps for each color of playdough you want to make.
- You may need to sprinkle more cornstarch to keep it from sticking to your hands when playing.
- If the dough gets hard after a day, place in the microwave for 10 seconds to soften it again.
