Food Storage Indoor Play Idea

Here's a fun indoor activity for the kids since they are home AND it uses our FOOD STORAGE! This will be among the recipes that I have prepared for our RS Food Storage night coming up this Wednesday, Feb. 17...

Cookie Clay Dough - like play-doh but you can cook and eat it!

In a mixer, cream together:
1/2 C sugar
1/2 C brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 C butter
1 t vanilla

Then add:
2 C whole wheat flour (white or any combination can also be used)
2 T dry egg powder or 1 large egg (can substitute 1/4 C applesauce or 1/2 mashed banana or 2 t baking powder and 2 T water--the idea is to use what you have)
1 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
1/2 t cinnamon

If you use dehydrated eggs then mix and slowly add 2 - 4 T water til it is the consistancy of play-doh.

Then you need:
clean hands
table or counter top
creativity
can use cookie cutters or washed and cleaned play-doh accessaries

Place on ungreased cookie sheet
Bake 350 for 10 - 15 minutes, depending on thickness you may need to keep your eye on it!
Germs will be killed by high oven temps! :)

Cool 3 minutes and EAT!
Enjoy!
