Cannabis Brownies Question

[Ganja Sam]

I'm thinking about making some brownies but I only have 2 grams of some nice bud. Should I wait until i pick up later today, cos i was thinking 2 grams might not be enough.

the recipe im gonna use sometime is:

3.5g Hash or Bud
Or 20g Leaves
110g Butter
2 Large Eggs
50g Plain Chocolate
1 tsp Baking Powder
A pinch of Salt

found here

What should I do? im already a bit stoned (had a few cones/bowls) and i dunno if 2 grams is enough.
help, im picking mid afternoon btw, should i wait? then do it later with more bud? cheers

That recipe is somewhat lacking in detail, and not one I would necessarily have much confidence in working well , however, I see no reason for you to try it, only use half of the other ingredients to keep the intended strength the same for each brownie (pro rata).

I'm a little dubious that the proposed method of throwing all the ingredients into a double broiler for a 'short'? (unstated) period of time would successfully extract anything like the full strength of THC from your bud.

Instead I would recommend grinding your bud into as fine a grain as you can manage and then mixing it JUST with the butter alone for as long a period as your prepared to wait in order to give the THC the best chance of binding to the fat molecules in the butter. Ideally simmering at around boiling point for about an hour (preferably a lot longer). If you can put a lid over the pan even better (prevents any THC being lost due to evaporation/vaporisation).

Once you've done that, then add the rest of the ingredients and follow the instructions as directed in the recipe.

Good luck and enjoy.

I'm cooking myself this afternoon, my legendary 'chilli con canna', by special request of some friends who are coming over tomorrow. It's gonna get messy!

sweet, cheers for that.

that recipe i used was nasty, i forgot to put the eggs in and they came out a bit like toffee, i put the 2 grams to it, ive had too many cones to really calculate how stoned i am as i picked up just as the brownies were cooking

Chilli con canna sounds good, i bet u'll have to put a shit load to that...
