1 cup salt |
3 tablespoons cream of tartar |

1. You will need 2 bowls; one large microwave safe and one medium plastic. Also, you will need a wooden or silicon spatula. 2. In the large bowl mix 2 cups flour, salt, and tartar; set aside. 3. In the medium bowl pour in the boiled water and steep tea bags for 5 min's. Next, remove tea bags and add vanilla and oil, stir together gently. 4. Combine the tea mix into the flour mixture in thirds, stirring after each addition. *The dough should be almost the consistency of cake batter* 5. Place bowl in microwave and cook on High for six, 45 second intervals stirring after each interval or until dough is partially cooked. **CAREFUL IT'S HOT**. 6. Add in last 2 cups of flour 1/2 cup at a time (as you may not need all of the flour) Stir until dough is stiff but soft.
