Tips Before You Cook With Cannabis
The very first step is making sure you have your weed ready to be decarbed. You can’t skip this step unless you want edibles that don’t provide a proper high.
The next step is to prepare your tincture and concentrate in advance.
So what does decarbing mean? Basically, it means that you have to bake your weed first in the oven, before using it in any of your recipes.
How To Decarboxylate
What does it mean? Well, basically it means that you have to bake your weed first, before using it in any recipe.
Decarboxylate your weed by spreading your cannabis evenly on an oven tray And coat with aluminum foil.
Place in the oven on 240F/115C for 25 till 45 minutes, and then let it cool.
Grind your dry cannabis or chop it till fine.
Place the cannabis in a strong mason jar, add butter and (1 tsp of sunflower lecithin)(optional)
Place your closed jar in cold water and let it come to a boil, Boil for 2 to 3 hours.
Strain your butter through a cheesecloth.
Cool down
Now you can use the Cannabis Butter (Cannabutter)

Notes
If using a mason jar, be sure to start with cold water. Furthermore, it is imperative to let the water cool gradually so that your glass will not shatter.The video guide might be slightly different than the blog recipe. The blog recipe is the most updated and accurate.
Place your crackers on the tin-foiled cookie sheets. You'll want to fill up two sheets and place crackers side by side. Sprinkle 2 cups of pecans all over the crackers as evenly as you can.
Preheat the oven to 350
In the meantime, in a saucepan on medium heat add cannabutter and wait until it starts to melt. Then add in your brown sugar. Stir it up, but once it starts to bubble and boil LEAVE IT and DO NOT STIR for apporximately two minutes. Do not let it burn.
Once two minutes are up, take it off the stove, pour evenly over all of the crackers.
Place in oven for abotu 7 minutes.
Remove, and sprinkle chocolate chips on top and let it sit to cool for about 20 minutes.
1wholelimecut into wedges with a small slit on top, to use for rimming the edge of the glass.
Instructions
Mix up all of your ingredients together except for Sprite and Candy Canes in a pitcher.
Grab your cocktail glasses and slide a lime wedge around the entire rim a few times, pushing hard.
Place your glass upside down into the sugar ( just pour the sugar on a plate) and rim your glass! If you don't have sugar, you can also crush up candy canes and use them here – make sure they're finely crushed.
Pour your cocktail mixture evenly into all glasses, pop a candy cane inside and voila!
4cupsChocolate Chips – Dark The darker the better!
2-4tbspCannabis Sugar2 tbps to blend in the melted chocolate afterward. Save 1-2 tbsp for decoration after.
1cupDry Hot Cocoa MixYour fav brand. You'll need to tbsp the mix into each of the completed shells – so 1 cup may work, or you may need a little more or less.
1/2cupCandy Melts or White ChocolateMelted and save for decoration after.
Instructions
Using your double boiler melt the chocolate chips over hot water.
Remove from heat, and stir in your Cannabis sugar until melted/dissolved.
Using a scoop or spoon, fill your silicone molds with the melted chocolate about 3/4 – 1/2 way full. ( depending on the size of your molds)
Then, use a teaspoon to swirl and stick the chocolate around the sides to form the shells. You'll need to make sure there are no holes, and that you've evenly smoothed out the chocolate on all sides.
Next, put them in the freezer in the molds, to harden for at least 20 min. When you remove them, to avoid broken bombs: 1) Stretch the mold a little bit around the shells – gently.2) Flip your mold over and push the balls out from the bottom onto a towel to cushion the fall.3) Then, just pop them back into the molds for now, loosely.
FILL THEM UP!
Pack each half shell with 5 or 6 mini marshmallows. Then, put your dry hot cocoa mix inside over top. A few tbsp's per shell will do. Nesquik dissolves smoothly, but you can choose whatever brand you love.
NEXT STEP
Top them with a last layer of melted chocolate! Use about a teaspoon full of the melted chocolate left over. Slide it gently on top with the spatula and seal all the edges in, covering all of the fun stuff inside.
Place them back in the freezer for another 20 minutes or more and remove them carefully, the same way you did above.
DECORATING YOUR CANNABIS HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS
Using candy melts or melting some white chocolate or milk chocolate in your double boiler, (same as above) you can drizzle chocolate on top and add a bit more Cannabis sugar. Let it dry. Be creative here!
THE EXPERIENCE
Make some nice, hot milk. Fill your mug about 3/4 full of the hot milk, drop in your Hot Cocoa Bomb, and stir! Enjoy the experience and later? You'll REALLY enjoy the experience!
EXTRA DECADENCE?
Once you've experienced the "bomb", you can top off your hot chocolate with Cannabis Whipped Cream.
