Lots of recipes here. I use brownies myself. They're easy to make.
It is a great way to medicate, slowly try different dose intake. You will require more cannabis than smoking. But it works well.
Hard to titrate orally. Have you tried using a vaporizer?
Here are my recipes for cannabutter and snickerdoodles, enjoy.
I use two ounces of good trim with leaves that have some of the tricomes on them and an occasional tiny bud for each pound of butter. You can use buds instead but you won't need as much. I add 1 extra stick of butter since you never get it all back.
Melt the butter very slowly in a large enough pot
Add the trim and mix it in with a spoon
Turn the stove up and watch the mixture until it just starts to boil
Cover the pot and immediately turn down the temperature to the lowest simmer setting
Cook 8-10 hours no peeking
Strain through a cheese cloth from Bed Bath and Beyond into a glass or metal bowl (I always burn my hands but do it anyway)
Cool in the fridge or freezer
When the stuff cools enough I try to put it into one cup amounts in plastic bags then just freeze them. You need to squeeze the stuff when it is hot and I think they make some gloves for that but I have never bothered to find them. Besides I like to lick my fingers for an early killer buzz and the butter makes your hands real smooth.
Snickerdoodles
1 Cup cannabutter
1 1/2 Cups sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 Cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons cream of tarter
1 teaspoon soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
Mix the cannabutter, sugar and eggs thoroughly. Blend the flour, cream of tarter, soda and salt then sift them and stir into the mix. Mix the 2 Tbs sugar and 2 tsps cinnamon in a small cereal size bowl. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls then roll them in the sugar cinnamon mix and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Cook at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.
I have found other information on the internet regarding making cannabutter and cookies in general that I plan to try some time but have not yet. They cook the butter for just two hours and cook the cookies and 275 - 300 degrees but for a longer time. Experimenting with these suggestions may or may not make them better as I have not tried them - yet.
Update: I cooked the cookies at 300 degrees for 17 minutes and they are stonier and the high lasts longer.
