GINGERBREAD SLIME RECIPE
Note: While this is considered an edible slime, it is not meant to be a food source. I am pretty sure this isn’t the healthiest thing to consume. However we are talking about safety, so this edible slime is perfectly fine if a little is consumed.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 can vanilla frosting
- 2/3 cup powdered milk
- 1 1/2 to 2 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 cup dark molasses
- ½ cup vegetable oil
Note: The powdered milk will create texture. Blend in a coffee grinder, food processor, or blender until a fine powder forms to create a smoother slime.
HOW TO MAKE GINGERBREAD SLIME
STEP 1. Heat the frosting in the microwave for 30 to 60 seconds or until it is pourable.
STEP 2. Whisk together the powdered milk, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
STEP 3. Stir in the molasses and melted frosting.
STEP 4. Slowly add cornstarch and oil, alternating between the two, until the slime is thick and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Turn out on waxed paper for playing.
TIP: If the slime is too sticky, add additional oil. If the slime sticks to hands, use wet hands to play. Playing on wax paper is recommended.
