This funfetti playdough recipe couldn’t be any easier! Mix together 1/2 can of funfetti frosting and 2 cups of powdered sugar. If it is too dry, add in a spoonful more frosting. If it is too sticky, add a little powdered sugar. We like to make 1/2 batches so we can make several different colors. The extra frosting is great for an impromptu batch of cupcakes 😉
HINT: If you are looking for a big batch you mix one can Funfetti frosting with 4 cups powdered sugar.

Just because we use an ice cream scoop doesn’t mean you can’t use your hands. This 2 ingredient playdough recipe is non-sticky and easy to play with and mold.
My kids weren’t sure it was going to “feel” like playdough, but it does!

Edible playdough
This ice cream playdough is so good you can eat it…. and lucky for your toddler, preschool, kindergarten, and elementary age kiddo – they can literally eat it as it is edible!
Not that I’m advising they eat it all as that would be a LOT of sugar. You still need to use some common sense 😉

My kids thought it was hilarious when I made it look like the ice cream play dough was spilling
Playdoh ice cream
We like making several batches of the edible playdough so the kids can play ice cream shop. Kids will love scooping the strawberry, blueberry, melon, chocolate, vanilla, etc. ice cream. The skies the limit as far as flavors. Plus the kids can mix colors to create a new flavor.
