Peanut Butter Playdough Recipe
Your kids are going to love this edible playdough. It tastes like candy!
After your kids create their sculptures and masterpieces, they can let them air dry for an hour or two (so the items get a “crust”), then stick them in a Ziploc. Your kids can snack on their art at a later time.

Short Video Tutorial for How to Make Peanut Butter Playdough
Directions to Make Edible Playdough from peanut Butter
Step 1
Put the marshmallows and peanut butter into a small dish and microwave for ten seconds. This should lightly soften your marshmallows making them easier to mix.
Step 2
Stir the peanut butter and marshmallow together until it is smooth. Sprinkle powdered sugar onto the dough until it is no longer sticky. I am guesstimating the amount of the powdered sugar.

This is a fantastic idea! I have a question, though… do you know if this would work with other nut butters? Like almond butter or sunflower butter? My daughter has a peanut allergy but I’d love to be able to make something similar for her!
I would think it would be fine. We end up with these recipes through experimentation – so go in with a little exploration in mind!
Thanks for the tip. 🙂 Love your blog!
This would be perfect for trying with my youngest! Thanks for linking up at Tell Me About IT Tuesday on womanofmanyroles.com
This is so interesting! I am tempted to try this even though my daughter hates peanut butter 🙂 Having three kids so close in age must be both exhausting and fun 🙂 Thanks for sharing with Afterschool!
Great idea!! I love seeing those little hands play with this! It’s a staple in our home, we make a version without the marshmallows: Peanut butter, melted coconut oil or butter and dry milk powder, it tastes like Reese’s peanut butter cups without the sugar :).
Hi – could you give me the measurements for this playdough – I much prefer this without the sugar xxx
How fun and you don’t have to worry about the kiddos eating it!
Love it! Definitely pinning and sharing. Can’t wait to try it!
