Whether you’re a certified cannabis veteran or just here to see what all the hype’s about, this guide will have you whipping up weed brownies that hit just right.

Gather Your Ingredients and Tools

Before you even think about firing up the oven, get your stash of ingredients and tools in order. A little prep now means no mid-bake panic later, and way more fun when the magic happens. You’ll need:

• Cannabis (amount varies)

• Brownie mix or ingredients for homemade brownies

• Oil or butter

• Baking tools (oven, baking pan, mixing bowl, etc.)
  

Having the right tools is essential for any baking endeavor. Make sure your oven is calibrated correctly and that you have a sturdy baking pan to prevent any mishaps.

How Much Cannabis to Use

The amount of cannabis needed depends on your desired potency. A common starting point is 1 gram of cannabis per serving. However, if you're new to edibles, consider starting with less. Remember, you can always eat more if needed, but you can't eat less once you've consumed it.

Finding the right dosage can be a bit of trial and error, especially for those new to cannabis edibles.

How to Infuse Oil or Butter with Cannabis

To make potent weed brownies, you'll first need to infuse your oil or butter with cannabis. This step is crucial, as it determines the strength of your edibles.

Step 1: Decarboxylate Your Cannabis Preheat your oven to 240°F (115°C). Break your cannabis into small pieces and spread it evenly on a baking sheet. Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even heating.

Step 2: Infuse the Oil or Butter Combine the decarboxylated cannabis with your choice of oil or butter in a saucepan. Use a low heat setting to simmer the mixture for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.

Step 3: Strain the Mixture Once infused, strain the mixture through a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer to remove the plant material.

Making Weed Brownies from Scratch

Making Weed Brownies from a Box Mix

3. Cool before serving.
   

Tips for Even Potency

Mix that batter like your high depends on it, because uneven weed means one bite’s a chill vibe and the next is a rocket to the moon.

Start slow: eat a small piece, then wait a solid two hours before going back for more. Edibles are a marathon, not a sprint.

Keep your brownies fresh by stashing them in an airtight container somewhere cool and dark. Want them to last? Freeze ‘em and you’ve got instant backup snacks for future you.

Making weed brownies at home can be a fun, creative way to consume cannabis. By following these steps, you can create potent and delicious edibles while controlling your dosage and experimenting with flavors.
