How to Make Delicious Pot Brownies for Beginners

If you prefer not to smoke weed and you’re curious about the soaring popularity of edibles, then this pot brownie recipe is exactly what you need.

Getting Started

The most important ingredient is canna oil or cannabutter. Don’t be intimidated because making it is actually quite easy to make. Here are the steps:

• First, you need to apply heat to the cannabis so that the THC is fully activated. Heat your oven to 240 degrees and then place your cannabis in one layer. Use a baking sheet with sides. The baking time is around 40 minutes and you’ll need to turn the sheet several times so that the heat is evenly distributed. When it’s almost ready, your cannabis will become dry.

• Next, bring to boil a quart of water in a medium sized saucepan. Make sure the marijuana is floating no more than 2 inches from the pan’s bottom, or at least 1.5 inches. Place the butter into the pan when the water starts to boil and allow it to melt entirely.  You can use 3-4 sticks of butter for every ounce of weed.

• Add marijuana when the butter has fully melted and turn down the heat to a simmer. Let it cook for about 3 hours or until the mixture becomes thick and glossy.

• Use a bowl to hold the product and place a double layer of cheesecloth over it. I recommend that you secure it with a string, tape or elastic.

• Then strain the butter until the saucepan is empty. Pick up the cheesecloth and squeeze all the butter that’s left inside.

• Let the butter cool for 1 hour and place inside the fridge until it solidifies.

• Finally, run a knife along the edges and lift off the butter. Place it upside down and remove any cooking liquid.

Now that you have cannabutter, let’s begin making your brownies.

Make sure you get the right dose to avoid nasty side effects. There’s a formula for this but if you want to do away with the Math, you can use an online calculator to determine how many mg of THC for every serving.

Here’s a simple recipe you can use which is good for 24 servings. The preparation time is 15 minutes and if you want to add frosting, it will require another 15 minutes. Cooking time is around 30 minutes.
