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.

DessertStandard

Apple crisp

Oat streusel over apples firm enough to hold their shape — Granny Smith or Braeburn, not a soft eating apple that collapses into sauce. Baked in ramekins, which takes the guesswork out of serving it.

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.

Marinara sauce

Mulled apple cider

Spiced cider warmed on the stove, with the infusion whisked in off the heat. A pot that serves a group, portioned into mugs rather than ladled freely.

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.

Peppermint patties

An uncooked fondant of confectioners' sugar and coconut oil, chilled hard and dipped in dark chocolate. Firm centers are the whole game — a soft patty smears in the bowl and comes out a lumpy puddle.
