How to Make Pink Princess Playdough

1. Using a mixer, combine cake mix and the white whipped frosting at low speed until it forms a crumbly mixture. Use a bread hook attachment if you have it – if not, no worries.

2. Continue mixing on low while adding in olive oil 1 teaspoon at a time until the dough reaches a consistency that you are happy with. If you accidentally add in too much oil, you can stiffen the dough back up with a bit of flour or cornstarch.

3. Next, add a few drops of pink food coloring and mix until no more streaks remain.

4. Finally, sprinkle in your glitter and knead it into the dough.

You can store your homemade playdough in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. If the playdough becomes too dry, add in a bit more olive oil until it becomes workable again.

Tip: Give the kids some playdough toys to use with their princess playdough for an extra fun time!

I hope that you and your kiddos enjoy your homemade pink princess playdough!
