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.

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.

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.

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.

Pumpkin pie

Custard pie, which means eggs set it and eggs will crack it if it goes past done. Pull it while the middle still wobbles and let carryover finish the job on the counter.

Rocky road

Chocolate, marshmallows and nuts set in a pan and cut into squares. The marshmallows go in after the chocolate has dropped to barely warm, or they melt and the whole pan turns into fudge.

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.

Soft vanilla caramels

Chewy caramels cut from a slab and wrapped in wax paper. The finishing temperature decides everything: 245 °F gives a piece that holds its shape on the counter and still gives under a bite.

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.

Vanilla marshmallows

Gelatin whipped with hot sugar syrup, cut into squares and dusted. Marshmallow takes no fat at all, so the dose rides in sugar dissolved into the cold bloom water, where it never meets direct heat.
