Microwaveable Salt dough Cookies

Okay I'm a bit delayed on getting this one up here, but tomorrow we are going to do a bunch of HEARTS with this recipe!  It can be used for just about ANY holiday.  And when you can MICROWAVE them in about 2-3 minutes, you have NO excuse to not get down and dirty and do some crafts with the kids!!


SALT DOUGH COOKIES

  • 4 cups of flour
  • 1 cup salt
  • 1 1/2 cups of hot water

*** Recipe can EASILY be halfed to make quite a few decorations ***
Using a microwave-safe plate (not paper or cardboard), microwave a plate of your ornaments for 1 to 4 minutes, increasing the time by 1 minute increments and keeping a close eye on the microwave as the ornaments bake. Microwave power levels differ, so use high power in a less-powerful oven, but lower if your oven heats things very quickly. You don't want to risk a fire! Let ornaments cool completely before decorating.
Here's our sample of Christmas ones:
