These sweet treats are best shared anyways. You’re not sure what to make? No problem. Keep reading to see 5 delicious baked goods to make with cannabutter.
Cannabutter
Cannabutter, as the name implies, is the combination of cannabis and butter. It’s commonly used as an ingredient to make cannabis edibles. Using cannabutter allows you to control how much cannabis goes into your edibles. This allows you to be able to microdose if that’s what you desire. It also allows you to explore exactly how much THC or CBD you like in your edibles.
You can make cannabutter at home with your preferred strains. This Bon Appetit article explains how to make cannabutter at home and what you need. First, you have to decarboxylate the weed. For this, you need your preferred kind of weed, a grinder, a baking sheet, and an oven. Once that’s all done, you perform the infusion of cannabis to the butter. This is done on a stovetop. You’ll need water, butter, the carboxylated weed, sauce pance, wooden spoon, and a cheesecloth.
But if you don’t feel like dealing with the hassle of it, there’s always cannabutter you can purchase. Heavenly Sweet Cannabutter is a great option. There’s also Simply High Extracts CBD Vegan Cannabutter for those who are vegan or more health conscious.
