Notes
Recipe adapted from theottoolbox.com*I used 2 pieces of crayons for a DOUBLE batch of the recipe, and the dough came out pastel colored. Would probably use 2 crayons for regular batch of recipe if looking for more vibrant colors**I used 10 drops of liquid food coloring to get the vibrant blue hue and 1/2 tsp of gel food coloring to get the vibrant red hue.
