i make brownies like that all the time.

a quarter o will be plenty. at first, eat about a 1 inch square to test its potency. remember..... when eating brownies, it can take as much as 2 hours to feel the effects.

many times, stupid people will eat a brownie.... not feel it, then hurry up and eat more. by the time the first one hit them, its more then enough....but they already ate another, and its practically hospital time.

it should be fine for 5 people.

remember..... use pretty high heat. the cannibus should at least be brown, maybe even burnt black after you mix it with oil and cook it.

and also....strain out the weed after you mingle it with oil. : ) i didnt see you mention that, thought you might just keep the bud and the oil together and throw it all in the mix. dont do that. strain out the bud after it cooks in the oil, but of course keep the oil.

remember....pretty high heat. get the oil moving and popping. dont low heat it, otherwise it wont work.

medium heat at least. i wouldnt go lower then a "6" on an electric oven.

high heat is the key to propper thc transfer. i know lot of people say low heat over extended cooking periods, but i found that to be patently untrue.
