Recipes

Cooking with cannabis is a fat substitution — you swap butter for cannabutter and the rest is ordinary cooking. So every recipe here stores the fat it needs and the dose it targets, and works out the split once it knows how strong your oil is.

Blondies

Brown sugar and vanilla carry the whole bar, with no cocoa to hide behind. That means the butter you use should be butter you would happily eat on toast, because the flavor is right out in the open.

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.

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.

Buckeyes

Peanut butter fudge rolled into balls and dipped so a bare circle shows on top, the way the nut does. Cold, firm centers are what keep the filling out of the chocolate bowl.

Chocolate sheet cake

A thin sheet cake cut into a grid, which makes it the easiest cake to dose accurately. The frosting carries the infusion so none of it goes through the oven.

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.

Oatmeal raisin cookies

Old-fashioned rolled oats hold their shape and give the cookie its chew; quick oats dissolve into the dough and leave it cakey. Plumping the raisins first stops them pulling moisture out of the crumb.

Peanut butter cookies

Four ingredients plus flour, and the fork marks are structural rather than decorative — the dough barely spreads, so the thickness you press is the thickness you bake. Roasted peanut covers an infusion better than almost anything.

Seven layer bars

Sweetened condensed milk is glue and sweetener at once, caramelizing as it bakes and binding the layers into a slab. Everything above the crust is topping, which keeps the dose in the one layer you can measure.

Snickerdoodles

Cream of tartar is what separates a snickerdoodle from a cinnamon sugar cookie. It gives the tang, reacts with the baking soda for lift, and keeps the sugar from setting up grainy as the cookie cools.
