- Serving Size: 12 servings
Ingredients:
For the Cannabis-Infused Coconut Oil:
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 1/8 ounce (3.5 grams) of your preferred cannabis strain
- Cheesecloth
- Fine mesh strainer
For the Chocolate Cannabis Recipe:
- 1 cup cannabis-infused coconut oil
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (for added texture, optional)
Step by Step Directions:
1. Prepare the Cannabis-Infused Coconut Oil:
- Preheat your oven to 240°F (115°C).
- Grind your cannabis into a fine consistency.
- Place the ground cannabis on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 30-40 minutes. This process, known as decarboxylation, activates the THC.
- In a saucepan, melt the coconut oil over low heat.
- Once the cannabis is done baking, add it to the melted coconut oil.
- Simmer the mixture on low heat for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Be careful not to let it boil.
- After 2 hours, strain the mixture into a container through a fine mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth. Squeeze out any excess oil.
- Allow the cannabis-infused coconut oil to cool and solidify at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
2. Prepare the Chocolate Cannabis Recipe:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Combine the cannabis-infused coconut oil and cocoa powder in a separate large mixing bowl. Mix well until smooth.
- Stir in the granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt into the cannabis-infused cocoa mixture until thoroughly combined.
- Gradually add the melted chocolate to the mixture, stirring until smooth.
- Gently fold in the all-purpose flour until just incorporated.
- Add chopped nuts and chocolate chips for added texture and flavour if desired.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top.
- Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the chocolate cannabis recipe to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least an hour.
- Once cooled, cut it into 12 equal-sized pieces and serve.
Tips:
- The potency of your cannabis-infused coconut oil will depend on the strain and the amount used. Be cautious with your dosing, especially if you’re new to edibles. Start with a small serving and wait at least 2 hours before consuming more.
- Store any leftover cannabis-infused coconut oil in an airtight container in the refrigerator for future use.
- You can customize this recipe by adding your favorite mix-ins like nuts, dried fruits, or even a sprinkle of sea salt for a gourmet touch.
This Chocolate Cannabis Recipe offers a delicious way to enjoy the benefits of cannabis in a delightful and indulgent treat. Remember to consume responsibly and in moderation, especially if you’re new to edibles. Enjoy!
