Peanut Butter Playdough

You know those healthy, no-bake, 3-ingredient recipes for little balls of vitamin and nutrient filled goodness your kids are guaranteed to devour you see on Pinterest? Yeah, this isn't one of those. This is your classic 3-not-super-healthy-but-plenty-sweet-and-delicious-ingredients Peanut Butter Playdough Recipe. It's easy to make, fun to play with and fun and easy to eat up! We've had success rolling little balls to dip and roll in toppings of your choice, making no-bake toddler-friendly Peanut Butter Playdough Hamentaschen for Purim and it's a great recipe to whip up on an afternoon at home for playing, snacking and maybe even storing for the next few days if you have any left.

Peanut Butter Playdough 

I use my KitchenAid mixer for quick prep if my son isn't helping in the kitchen

He especially loves rolling little balls!

You will need:

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup honey

*This makes a generous amount of dough--I often cut the recipe in half if it's just the two of us playing, but you can also increase the recipe for larger groups

We added some little cookie cutter shapes for added fun

Directions:

I use our stand up mixer to save on time if I'm prepping ahead, but little ones can also join you in the kitchen to pour in ingredients and mix them by hand (both with a spoon and then literally) until a stiff dough is formed. You can enjoy playing, molding, rolling and even using cookie cutters with this one--if it lasts long enough for that. I'd recommend setting out only a small portion of dough to play with--one that won't give a belly ache if completely consumed, and also so that you are not storing and reusing something that has been through and through even the cleanest of toddler fingers. Should you manage to have any left over, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator and revisit while your child is napping at your leisure. Happy and tasty playing!

Our Peanut Butter Playdough Hamentaschen made a great toddler-friendly version of the popular Purim treat to eat and share with friends last year!
