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.

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.

Shakshuka

Eggs poached in a spiced tomato sauce. The infused oil is stirred in off the heat at the end rather than used to build the sofrito, which is the difference between keeping your dose and simmering it away.

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.

Spiced hot chocolate

Proper hot chocolate made with real chocolate rather than powder, which gives the fat somewhere to hide and keeps the dose suspended.

Stovetop mac and cheese

A roux-thickened macaroni finished off the burner. The infused butter goes in last, once the pan has stopped steaming, because a hot pan both wastes potency and turns melted cheddar grainy.

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.
