You did use unsweetened kool-aid right? If not, the sugar is what is making it sticky. You will need to start over if that is the case.

If its still too sticky when its cool (it shouldn't be as sticky either way) Add more flour. Slowly though. Add a tiny bit, mix. If it's still sticking, add some more.
