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.

Banana nut muffins

Muffin-method batter mixed by hand in one bowl, with bananas dark enough that the skins are mostly black. A high opening oven temperature is what gives the tops their dome.

Belgian waffles

Deep-pocket waffles leavened with baking powder and lightened with whipped whites. Crispness comes from a fully preheated iron and leaving the lid shut until the steam slows down.

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 chip muffins

An oil-based muffin, which makes it one-bowl and forgiving. Portioned into a pan with twelve equal wells, which is the easiest even dosing you can get from a baked good.

Two ingredients plus the infusion, no candy thermometer, no oven. The most forgiving way to make something strong and cut it small.

Coconut haystacks

Mounds of toasted coconut bound in dark chocolate, set on a tray. Toasting the coconut first is not about color — untoasted shreds hold moisture, and moisture is what turns melted chocolate to sludge.

Crispy rice cereal treats

No oven and about ten minutes of work. The marshmallow goes on the heat, the infusion goes in after, and the whole thing lives or dies on how evenly you press the pan.

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.

Maple pecan granola

A low, slow granola that bakes gently enough not to punish the infusion. Makes a jar that lasts a fortnight and doses itself by the spoon.

Mocha latte

A café mocha built to carry fat. Cocoa and milk proteins hold the melted butter in suspension once you blend it, which is why the foam matters here for more than looks.

No-bake chocolate oat cookies

Boiled sugar, cocoa and oats dropped onto wax paper, and the only real variable is the boil. Sixty seconds at a full rolling boil sets them; thirty leaves puddles and ninety turns them dry and crumbly.

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.

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.
