Cannabis is a very versatile plant, and there are several different ways to consume and enjoy it. You can smoke, vape, or apply it topically, but most cannabis enthusiasts still prefer to consume cannabis products orally.
One of the traditional recipes for homemade cannabis edibles is the recipe for brownies. They are a classic and one of the oldest recipes in the marijuana cookbook.

Before you even consider trying to make weed brownies, you should make the weed reserves on time. You don’t need that much weed to bake brownies, but you need a quality and energizing strain that will provide you with the ideal buzz you have always wanted.
So, check all the possible options on the cannabis market and pick your vendor carefully. Many cannabis shops online like weedsmart.cc offer a wide range of high-quality cannabis buds and strains. You can view more here and check the recipes.
So, make sure to buy your weed from reputable vendors, and test it when you get it. Try the strain you’ve purchased and see how it affects you. You don’t want to make delicious brownies and experience a bad buzz.
Prepare weed and all the ingredients before baking.
If it’s your first time baking weed brownies, you probably don’t know that cannabis needs proper preparation before mixing it with brownie ingredients. First, you should pick an adequate amount of weed, which shouldn’t be over 0.5-1 grams for 12 brownies.
Before preparing all the other dry and wet ingredients, make sure to bake your weed because you don’t want to waste it and not get the expected effects. That means decarboxylating your weed correctly.
That includes heating the cannabis to a proper temperature to activate its effects and psychoactive form. As you already know, you can’t get intoxicated if you don’t light a rolled bud. So, put the ground weed on the baking sheet and preheat the oven to 240°F.
Spread the weed evenly and let it bake for about 30-50 minutes (depending on the amount of weed). Set the weed aside once you finish baking and leave it to rest. Make sure to prepare the following:
- Baking pan
- Two sticks of unsalted butter
- 4 ounces of high-quality dark chocolate
- One tablespoon of vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- Two small cups of flour
- ½ cup of sugar
- Four small eggs (3 large)
Mix the rest of the ingredients and bake.
You can mix all the ingredients once you prepare the weed and everything you need for the original brownie recipe, starting with chocolate and butter. Melt ⅓ of the butter in a saucepan and add the baked weed. Put the chocolate in another medium-sized pan, and melt it on low heat.
Take a large mixing bowl, put all the other ingredients, except eggs and flour, and mix them well. Then, mix the homemade cannabutter with the melted chocolate and stir it for a couple of minutes.
Pour the chocolate/butter mix into the mixing bowl and add one egg at a time. Make sure to mix the eggs until the mixture becomes perfectly blended and soft.
Finally, add the flour and stir it carefully until the ingredients become fully incorporated. Use the rest of the butter to coat the baking pan. Preheat the oven to 350℉ and bake the weed brownies for about 20-30 minutes.
Let the baked mixture cool, and slice it into 12 small treats (or six large.) Store the leftovers in a cool and dry place, or keep them in the freezer.
Note: If you’re not so into the cannabis flavor, you can add some baked walnuts or hazelnuts to the mixture.

Enjoy and let the edibles kick in.
Edibles are the best and safest way to consume weed, but only if you know how quickly and intensely they can kick in. To avoid making a rookie mistake, take one edible at a time. The taste of this delicacy can easily take you into ecstasy and make you crave more.
However, if you eat more than one brownie, it will not be a pleasant experience. So, eat one edible and wait at least 40 minutes for the effects to kick in. If you’re not satisfied with one, take a small portion after an hour and be patient.
How edibles will behave in your body depends on many factors, such as how much food you ate that day, what your weight is, and how long it takes you to digest a brownie. Be patient and let the edibles do their magic.
Conclusion
Weed brownies are the perfect addition to any party, and, more importantly, they are easy and quick to make. Even people with basic cooking skills can make them. Eat your fresh homemade brownies cold if you want to experience the magic of these treats.
