Hey, Sid here. Just whipped up a batch of the absolute holy grail of edibles—proper, fudgy cannabutter brownies that actually taste incredible and hit just right.
**Ingredients:**
* 1/2 cup (1 stick) of cannabutter (made using my standard ratio: 1 cup butter to 7-10g decarbed flower)
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
* 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 1/4 tsp baking powder
**Steps:**
1. **Decarb first (don't skip this!):** Spread 7-10g of ground flower on a lined baking sheet. Bake at 240°F (115°C) for 30–40 minutes to convert the non-psychoactive THCA into active THC.
2. **Infuse:** THC is fat-soluble (water won't extract it), so simmer your decarbed flower with 1 cup of butter on low heat (160–200°F / 70–95°C) for 2–4 hours. Strain through cheesecloth.
3. **Prep:** Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8 inch pan.
4. **Mix:** Melt 1/2 cup of your finished cannabutter. Whisk in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla.
5. **Combine:** Fold in the cocoa, flour, salt, and baking powder until just combined.
6. **Bake:** Pour into the pan and bake for 20-22 minutes. Let them cool completely before cutting into 16 even squares.
*Word to the wise:* Edibles take 30–90 minutes to kick in because they go through your liver, so don't double down too fast. If you're new, aim for a 5-10mg THC serving, label the box clearly, and keep them way out of reach of kids and pets! — Internet of Pot
