Now start to cut out and object you want to make pop up. I recommend it being somewhat small. Like this:

DIY Edible Gingerbread Slime!

Hello! Today, I will be telling you how to make slime. Slime is the hot new thing now.  Slime is a fun craft to make with kids. This is what you will need:

  • Gingerbread marshmallows
  • cooking oil
  • powder sugar

First, you put the gingerbread marshmallows in a bowl. Heat them up for about 30 seconds or less. Stir, then put in cooking oil and then stir some more. Next, add in some powdered sugar and begin to work the mixture with your hands. Continue adding either sugar or oil until the slime becomes the consistency that you are looking for. You may need to rub or spray some cooking oil on your hands to keep the mixture from sticking to you while you knead it.

If you plan on eating your slime eat, it before you play with it. You should probably store the slime in a Ziploc bag or an airtight container to keep it from drying out. My sister and I had a fun time making this slime. It’s fun to play with and it smells great too!
