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.

Tell the site how strong your butter or oil is and every recipe rewrites its ingredient amounts to match.

Vanilla ice cream

Custard base, which means egg yolks, and the yolks are what make an infused fat workable here at all. Their lecithin breaks the fat into droplets small enough to freeze smooth instead of in waxy specks.

Chocolate truffles

Ganache is an emulsion of cream into chocolate, and it breaks for the same reasons mayonnaise does. Warm cream, finely chopped chocolate and stirring from the center out are what keep it together.

Caramel apples

A dipping caramel cooked to 245 °F and then allowed to fall to about 200 °F before the butter goes in — which happens to be the same temperature at which caramel coats an apple instead of sliding off it.

Pecan caramel turtles

Clusters of toasted pecans under a spoonful of caramel and a cap of chocolate. Caramel taken to 245 °F stays where you put it instead of creeping out from under the chocolate a day later.
