I once tried making playdough on the cooker and it was an unmitigated disaster! 
I've just tried this recipe and it was sooooo easy - and quick!
I made half the quantity given here, and got two good handfuls of playdough.
Thought it might be useful for any playdough fans out there!
MICROWAVE PLAYDOUGH
2 mugs of plain flour, 2 mugs of salt, 2 mugs of cold water, 2 tspns of oil, food colouring, 4 tspns of Cream of Tartar. Mix all ingredients together in large bowl.
Cook in microwave for 1 minute on high power.
Remove and stir well.
Cook in microwave for 1 minute more.
Knead well.
