Ingredients
  

For the Edible Yogurt Silly Putty
  • 1 cup plain yogurt provides the creamy texture
  • 1 cup cornstarch helps to thicken the yogurt
  • 1 tbsp food coloring optional, for color
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract optional, for flavor

Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Spatula or Spoon

Method
 

  1. Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain yogurt and cornstarch. Use a spatula or spoon to mix them together.
  2. Step 2: Continue mixing until the ingredients form a thick, dough-like consistency.
  3. Step 3: If you want to add a splash of color, now's the time! Incorporate the food coloring into the mixture and knead until it’s evenly colored.
  4. Step 4: For a little extra flavor, stir in the vanilla extract. It makes the putty smell divine!
  5. Step 5: Once the mixture is well combined, knead it with your hands for a few minutes until it reaches a smooth and stretchy texture.
  6. Step 6: If the putty is too sticky, add a little more cornstarch; if it’s too dry, add a tiny bit more yogurt. Adjust it until you find that perfect consistency.
  7. Step 7: Your edible silly putty is ready to play with! When you're not using it, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

Store your edible silly putty in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It should last about a week, but trust me, it won’t last that long because everyone will want to play with it!
