Fudgy one-bowl brownies
A high-fat, low-flour brownie that bakes dense rather than cakey. The cocoa does most of the work of hiding the infusion.

Ingredients
¾ cup infused butter
Set your infusion strength above and this splits into infused and plain butter to hit whatever dose you want.
- 1½ cupsgranulated sugar
- 3large eggs
- 2 tspvanilla extract
- ¾ cupunsweetened cocoa powder
- ¾ cupall-purpose flour
- ½ tspfine salt
- 1 cupchopped dark chocolate — optional
Method
- 01
Heat the oven to 350 °F and line an 8-inch square pan with parchment, leaving an overhang.
350 °F
- 02
Melt the butter gently — warm enough to be liquid, no hotter. Whisk in the sugar until it looks like wet sand.
- 03
Beat in the eggs one at a time and then the vanilla, and keep beating for a full minute. That minute is what gives you the papery top.
- 04
Fold in the cocoa, flour and salt, then the chopped chocolate. Stop as soon as it comes together.
- 05
Spread into the pan and level it carefully. An uneven slab cuts into uneven doses.
- 06
Bake until a skewer comes out with moist crumbs, not clean.

- 07
Cool completely in the pan before cutting. Warm brownies tear, and torn squares are not equal squares.
- 08
Lift out by the parchment and cut into 16 even squares with a long knife, wiping it between cuts.
Built on
Standard fudgy brownie ratio: ¾ cup fat, 1½ cups sugar, 3 eggs, ¾ cup cocoa, ¾ cup flour — high fat and sugar against low flour is what makes it fudgy rather than cakey.
Every recipe here names the conventional ratio underneath it. The cannabis part is a fat substitution, not new chemistry — so if the base is sound and the substitution is sound, the recipe is sound.

Before you eat it
- These are estimates, not lab results. Treat the low end as the honest number and the high end as the thing to plan around.
- Start with one serving and wait two hours. Edibles take 30 to 120 minutes to come on, and the most common mistake is redosing before the first one lands.
- Test a small piece first. Potency is rarely even across a batch, especially if the infusion was not mixed thoroughly.
- Label anything you store with the date and the estimated dose, and keep it away from children, pets and anyone who did not ask for it.
- If you overdo it: you are not in danger, but it will be unpleasant. Find somewhere quiet, drink water, and wait it out. Do not drive.

Brown butter chocolate chip cookies
The standard creamed-butter drop cookie, with the butter browned first. Browning drives off water and deepens the flavor enough to cover any grassiness in the infusion.

No-bake peanut butter cups
Two layers, a muffin pan and a freezer. No oven, no smell, and the dose lives in the filling where you can measure it exactly.

Brown sugar shortbread
The classic one-two-three ratio: one part sugar, two parts butter, three parts flour. Almost half of it is butter, which makes it one of the most efficient carriers on the site.
