I like to grind my trees up in a coffee bean grinder for baking, although if it's really sticky that can lead to a bit of loss. I figure about an 1/8th per 8 x 8" or 9 x 9" pan. I also prefer to make brownies from scratch, special or not, to circumvent the random ingredients in box mixes (dyes, preservatives, high fructose corn syrup). Honestly, baking can be pretty subjective and take a lot of delicious, delicious experimentation.
I think this is the closest to the recipe I've used, though I don't bother to make the frosting: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/best-brownies/
Also my ex was making all our baked goods so I'm a bit rusty on this. I think the major tip is just grind the trees as fine as possible, and spread them as evenly as possible- it sucks to get, say, a corner piece that's only so-so then the next corner piece kicking your ass. Happy experimenting!
Hey - I agree with you, but at least to me your presentation sounds kind of douche. Would you mind helping this fella out?
Hey OP, try this recipe.
10 oz macerated strawberries 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 3/4 cups finely crushed chocolate graham crackers 1/2 cup cannabutter, melted 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened 1 (14 ounce) can Sweetened Condensed Milk 2 large eggs 1/3 cup lemon juice 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. In blender container, blend strawberries until smooth. In saucepan, combine strawberry puree and cornstarch; cook and stir until thickened. Cool. Combine graham crumbs and butter in small bowl; press firmly on bottom of greased 13x9-inch baking pan. In large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Add eggs, lemon juice and vanilla; mix well. Pour over crust. Drop strawberry mixture by spoonfuls over batter. Gently swirl with a knife or spatula. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until center is set. Cool. Cut into bars. Chill. Store leftovers covered in refrigerator.
(note: Intead of strawberries you can use any type of fruit you want. I am going to experiment with triple berry swirl cheesecake bites in the future Also, all of the cannabutter is in the crust.)
SOURCE: This was originally an allrecipes recipe I adapted b/c I didn't want to use frozen fruit and also there needed to be more butter (and not just regular butter) to make the crust so I upped the amount of butter and changed the graham cracker crust from regular to chocolate. Here is the original recipe: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/strawberry-swirl-cheesecake-bars/detail.aspx
Cog psych guy here, one of my neuro friends (a huge pothead) pointed out that cannabinoids and opioids (morphine-like painkillers that your BF will prolly be on) appear to have synergistic properties. He was on Dilaudid (hydromorphone, a killer painkiller) for tearing his ACL and fucking up his knee somehow at the same time, smoked two joints as is his wont and hit the fucking ceiling (when he should have merely been high). He then did research and found this.
tl;dr Good news if your BF is going to take codeine for the pain! chronic + morphinergic drugs = greater than the sum of their parts! You might want to ensure chron dosage isn't over the top, tho
Neat. Always love to see DIY solutions.
But a 4x4 grow tent can be had for under ~$100 on Amazon. So it's really not much of a cost benefit overall unless you need/want something custom or are wary of buying a tent online.
Also one suggestion, using the 'mirrored' mylar (or "Metallized Polyester Film", Mylar is a brand name, to find cheaper stuff, search for the generic name) can cause reflective hot spots that can cause random spots of light burn or other such issues. For DIYers, look for film with a matte or flat finish or, if you're handy with a sewing machine and can find it cheaply, use polyester mylar coated fabric (most prebuilt grow tents use "600d oxford mylar fabric").
when i was vegan a couple of years ago i made brownies with this recipe. they were the bomb! we got wasted as fuck and went and played lazer quest by the beach... some good fucking birthday times :'D i used olive oil and cooked about 4 grams of ground up hash in a pan on the stove for about an hour on a medium-low heat, so it was simmering gently, and then used the oil in the brownie recipe. if you boil it, the hash (weed more so) will burn and become useless. i wasn't so keyed in on the whole greater fat content = more thc absorption thing, so i would recommend an oil with a really high fat content for maximum results... i think coconut oil has the highest fat content of all the oils. here's a table for comparison, i think pretty much all these oils should be vegan. but even though i used olive oil, we still got baked as fuck... so be careful xD
First of all you need to cook your shit at 320 degrees F for 22 minutes not 5 seconds more not 5 seconds less. Right before you put it in the oven, put it in the microwave (no, not with the tinfoil) for 15 seconds. not a second more not a second less. wrap it in tinfoil and put it in the oven. when your 22 minutes is up, take it out of the oven, then out of the tinfoil, and put it back into the microwave for another 15 seconds. let it cool and enjoy.
Just take whatever recipe involves butter and sub cannabutter. You could try a recipe that calls for a shitload of butter already like shortbread cookies or chess squares.
http://tinypic.com/r/9a4en5/5 I suck at this. Too high. Ingredients: Bread Roll Nutella Mini Marshmallows.
Task: Cut roll in half Place mini Marshmallows on it Microwave 15 Seconds Spread Nutella ENJOY
;)
.5 grams is a fairly strong pain relieving dose. A gram is more in the psychedelic realm. If you have 14 grams, you should make twenty or so cookies, coming in around .6-.7 grams/piece.
Most boxed brownie recipes only use 1/2 cup of oil/butter. My suggestion is to make shortbread. It cooks lower and slower, and has a higher butter ratio.
Use two sticks of butter (you will lose some to the process) and make these: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Scottish-Shortbread-II/Detail.aspx
Dont throw away the herb after the first run! Get two cans of coconut milk, two cans of water, simmer for 45 mins, bam, ganja milk! Add chocolate or honey or whatever.
Pantyhose > cheesecloth
You can make this cupcake recipe. Cook weed in either the oil or milk (I'd use soy milk if you're doing the milk. Use the Lon Lon Milk recipe) or both.
