Tips and Tricks for Great Brownies
- Don’t overbake. Overbaking can damage the active compounds in
the cannabutter, changing the potency of your brownies. Plus, when
you overbake brownies, you run the risk of ending up with charred
chunks of chocolate, which nobody likes.
<!– –>
- Allow to cool completely. Cannabis connoisseurs will tell you
that marijuana brownies are best consumed when allowed to cool in a
refrigerator overnight. Before cutting your marijuana brownies,
remove them from the refrigerator and allow them to come to
room temperature.

- Don’t be afraid to experiment. Once you’ve made cannabis
brownies a few times, it’s fun to experiment with different forms
of cannabis. Rather than using cannabis butter, for example, you can
easily use cannabis oil. Simply pick up a box of brownie mix at the
store, and use the marijuana oil in place of regular cooking oil. To
add an extra flavor profile to your brownies, stir in a generous
handful of walnuts immediately before spooning the batter into the
greased pan.
<!– –>
- Be sure to strain. If you’re using homemade cannabis oil rather
than butter in your brownies, be sure to strain any cooked marijuana
particulate from the oil before using it. This will make your
brownies taste better and prevent you from getting a mouthful of
cannabis particulate when you bite into your first brownie.
<!– –>
- Store correctly. Keep your marijuana brownies in an airtight
container at room temperature. To be safe and
responsible,
be sure to label your marijuana-infused brownies so that nobody
unknowingly consumes one.
While making marijuana brownies may seem like the domain of seasoned
cannabis aficionados, the process is simple and perfect for those who
have never cooked with cannabis before. While it may take some time to
produce the perfect homemade cannabis brownie, learning is half the fun.
