Place the pan on the stovetop and over medium heat, stir constantly, until a stiff ball of dough forms. The dough will look like a lump of mashed potatoes. Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool for 2 minutes.
Knead the dough for 5 minutes or until it is soft and elastic. Enjoy the sweet smell of marshmallow as you work your fingers through the playdough.
