  • 1 cup (200 grams) of white granulated sugar: substitute cannabis sugar if you want

Dosing & Potency

Dosing couldn’t be easier if you are using my Bliss cannabutter.

Use the chart below to determine the exact amount to use to get your desired milligrams of THC per batch or per brownie.

If you are not using Bliss cannabutter, a great way to determine the potency is to use my edible dosage calculator.

Storage Instructions

Store these delicious pot brownies in an airtight container for up to seven days at room temperature.

Storing these brownies in an air-tight container with a slice of bread will keep them soft and moist.

For longer-term storage, individually wrap the brownies in parchment paper, then plastic wrap, and then place them in the refrigerator or freezer.

They can last upwards of 6 months in the freezer. Learn more about how to store edibles here.

Infusion Options

As with all things edibles, there is more than one way to infuse something and more than one way to make a cannabutter recipe.

Here we will explore the different ways you can infuse this marijuana brownie recipe and reap the health benefits of cannabis.

Butter or Oil

Did you know you can use your Grandma’s sacred brownie recipe and swap in Bliss cannabutter or your own homemade infusion?

Choose one of these popular staple recipes to get started: 

When you make your own canna oil or butter at home, you can choose what type of cannabis flower you want to use: 

You can adjust the amount of butter or oil used alongside regular butter or oil to control your dose as needed.

Cannabis Brownies

Cannasugar

You can make these brownies with cannabis-infused sugar; swap the infused sugar for white or brown sugar. 

You could also use infused oil or butter and infused sugar for extra potent brownies.

Cannabis Concentrates

All cannabis concentrates can work in this recipe, including distillate, shatter, wax, FECO, or RSO.

Just be sure to check if your concentrate needs to be decarbed first.

Then, mix the concentrate with ยฝ cup of butter or coconut oil and prepare the recipe according to the instructions below.

How much you will add is up to you and your taste preferences; 1 ml or 1 gram is a standard place to start.

Cannabis Tinctures

If you want to use an alcohol-based tincture like the Green or Golden dragon, I recommend evaporating the alcohol and making FECO first.

If you want to use an oil-based tincture, use it in place of the butter or oil mentioned above.

Decarbed Flower

You can absolutely just add ground decarbed cannabis flower or kief to this recipe by mixing it into the dry ingredients.

Don’t forget to decarb first if you want the activated benefits of THC or CBD.

Learn more about the decarboxylation process here.

Just be mindful of adding the right dose, especially if you are not a regular consumer of edibles.

Leftover Cannabis Pulp

If you want, you can add the leftover cannabis pulp to your brownie mix.

Add ยผ to ยฝ cup of leftover pulp to the prepared chocolate batter as an additional ingredient.

Just know that the plant matter may affect the final texture of this recipe.

Baking Tips

  • These chocolatey brownies are already fudgy, but for even FUDGIER brownies, use ยฝ cup of all-purpose flour instead of ยพ cup. Skip this if you prefer cakey brownies.
  • The cannabutter should be softened to room temperature for the best results in the creaming process. You don’t want to use melted butter; you want to be softened. Learn how to soften cannabutter safely.
  • When measuring flour or cocoa powder, use a spoon to transfer the flour from the container to your measuring cup and then level it out with a flat edge, like a butter knife. This helps prevent packing and makes for better brownies.
  • The baking process is not perfect. All ovens bake at different temperatures; 25 minutes is the average baking time. Some ovens will bake quicker, so check your brownies for your desired doneness with a toothpick. The toothpick does NOT need to come out clean, unlike making a cake. Making fudgy brownies will leave deliciousness on the toothpick. Just verify that what is in the toothpick doesn’t have a batter consistency, indicating that the batter needs to be baked a bit longer. Adjust accordingly to find your perfect texture.

Notes and Expert Tips

  • Know your dose: If you have never had edibles before, know they can affect you differently than other consumption methods like smokingtopicals, or tinctures. Your experience may also differ if you use an Indica or Sativa strain.
  • Be patient: Edibles take 30 minutes to several hours to hit and can last 6-12 hours, so donโ€™t reach for that second helping so quickly! You want to make sure your high time is a good time. Discover what to do if you accidentally get too high.
  • Be safe: One of the most important things about cannabis edibles is to follow the golden rule, start low and go SLOW. Keeping your mg of THC low is the best way to stay safe. Do not eat an entire batch of marijuana brownies in one sitting, no matter how much you love the flavor of your homemade weed brownies.

Notes

  • Consistency note: For even FUDGIER brownies, use a 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour instead of 3/4 cup.
  • Baking note: Unlike making a cake, the toothpick does NOT need to come out clean. Making fudgy brownies will leave deliciousness on the toothpick. Just verify that what is in the toothpick doesn’t have a batter consistency, indicating that the batter needs to be baked a bit longer.
  • Metric Conversion Note: The metric conversion tool is provided as a convenience and should not be relied upon as an exact measurement in recipes. The results of conversions produced by the online metric converter are based on mathematical models and cannot guarantee that the recipe will turn out perfectly with metric measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it OK to bake these brownies at such a high oven temperature?

Yes, it is OK to bake these brownies at the high temperature of 350ยฐF (177ยฐC), you do not need to switch to low heat.

Can I use a store-bought brownie mix?

Yes, you sure can! A typical box of brownie mix calls for ยฝ cup or โ…” cup of butter or vegetable oil. Just swap that vegetable oil for your desired amount of Bliss cannabutter and follow the package instructions.

Will making cannabis brownies make my house smell?

The smell will be significantly reduced if you already have prepared oil or butter and are not actively decarbing or infusing.

What are the effects of cannabis brownies?

Cannabis edibles affect every person differently because of our unique endocannabinoid systems (ECS). This, paired with our physiology, means we will experience the effects differently. Some of the most commonly reported effects include a feeling of intoxication or being high, sleepiness, drowsiness, happiness, pain relief, calmness, and more.

How much cannabis should I use?

The potency will depend on the strength of your flower and how much weed you used, so feel free to use my flower-to-oil ratio guide and the edibles dosage calculator to make a guesstimate. Making your product with trim or shake will be less potent than making your cannabis oil or butter with premium, high-quality flowers or kief. Remember, the better the bud, the better the butter.

How do I make more potent cannabis brownies?

One way to quickly increase the THC levels is by adding concentrates or kief. Just be mindful of how much THC you add, as everyone has a different tolerance. The last thing you want to do is accidentally consume too many milligrams of THC and feel unwell.

    Good go to recipe. I make brownie bites in small tart pan. The. Add a rollo at the end. Pretty potent but that may be to my butter (maybe an add a little too much weed ๐Ÿ˜‰). I bake these for @20 min. This recipe works for non weed brownies too

  2. How do you process the cannabis into the butter To make the Cannabutter what are.the Portions ratio I would like to try my hand at making it

  3. 5 stars
    This recipe is immensely good and simple to make. My go-to for making moist and tasty weed brownies for optimal levels of highness ๐Ÿ˜‰

    1. Glad you enjoyed the recipe, David! ๐Ÿ˜Š Nothing beats a simple and tasty treat. Happy baking! ๐ŸŒฟ

  4. 5 stars
    Very good!!! These turned out great ๐Ÿ˜Š I cut mine into 16 pieces though so they werenโ€™t as strong (canโ€™t figure out the math for how much per brownie but they definitely worked)

    1. Hi Emily. I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed your brownies! Cutting them into 16 pieces is a smart move for lighter potency โ€“ it’s all about finding what works best for you. Don’t worry about the exact math; as long as they worked and you had a good experience, that’s what matters!

  5. I followed brownie recipe you provided, but i dont see how many mgs are in each brownie, can you advise?

    1. Hi Brenda. The amount of mgs in each brownie depends on the total you used for the batch and how many brownies you divide the batch into. If you can tell me the specifics of what you added, I can help you calculate the mgs per brownie.

  6. I’m making these for a little Easter treat for me and the hubby, I don’t have baking powder but have baking soda, should I use baking soda or should I use self rising flour? If I use self rising do I use the same amount of flour minus the salt and baking powder?

    1. Hi Angela. If you’re out of baking powder but have baking soda, you can use it as a substitute. However, the substitution isn’t a 1:1 ratio. Typically, you’d use about 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda for every teaspoon of baking powder required by the recipe.

      If you opt for self-rising flour, it already contains baking powder and salt, so you can use it in place of all-purpose flour and omit the additional baking powder and salt from the recipe. Just keep the measurements the same.

      Happy baking, and I hope you and your hubby enjoy the brownies!

  7. i use my own pot to make butter and i want to make my brownies does any one know how much of my butter to use I’m new at making them but have had them in the past and ate to many cookies and it nock me on my ass scared the shit wright out of my hubby but they was so good i ate 5 of them lol ya i wont be doing that again

    1. Hey there, Rhonda Kay. Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the world of homemade edibles ๐ŸŽ‰ It’s all about finding the right balance, isn’t it? When using your own cannabis butter in brownies, a general rule of thumb is to use the same amount as regular butter called for in your recipe. However, due to the potency of cannabis butter, you might want to start with half the amount and adjust according to your comfort level. Make up the remaining half with non-infused butter. Remember, edibles can take a while to kick in, so be sure to wait at least an hour before having more. We wouldn’t want another surprise for your hubby, would we? ๐Ÿ˜…

  8. I made these tonight, deviating only slightly in the process/ingredients listed.

    I used at least a 1/4 lb of homemade canna butter using unsalted butter. As this is my first attempt I consider it a huge success considering how much I “winged” it.

    I made them on the super fudgy side and dang didn’t that just nail it!

    Thanks, this will be a staple in my baking rotation!

    1. Hi Sarah. Great job on making these! “Winging it” seems to have paid off. The super fudgy texture sounds absolutely delicious. Keep up the good work and enjoy your new staple!

  10. 5 stars
    This is a little nitpicky, but I want to point out that in step 2, you say to mix all the dry ingredients together. Then in step 3 you say to cream the butter and sugar together…. but sugar is a dry ingredient, right?? If someone were to follow this recipe step by step, I could easily see them mixing the sugar in with all the other dry ingredients and then being unable to properly complete step 3. Anyone who bakes would know not to do that, but stoners and bakers might not have the biggest overlap, y’know? Still giving 5 stars though, they turned out nice ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. Hi there, Cami! Thank you so much for your 5-star review and for your keen observation. You’re absolutely correct, and this is a detail we’ve overlooked. We’ve updated the instructions to clarify this point thanks to your input. We appreciate your thoughtful feedbackโ€”it helps us improve and serve our community better. Happy baking! ๐Ÿช๐Ÿ’•

  11. Has anyone ever tried using cannabutter AND cannasugar? Too much? I’m guessing that the brownies can be frozen indefinitely?

    1. Hi Wes. You can definitely combine cannabutter and cannasugar when making this recipe. It’s all a matter of personal preference for strength. I recommend sampling a small piece to start with before consuming a normal sized brownie. For ideal freshness, I wouldn’t store in the freezer for longer than six months. Happy baking!

  12. 5 stars
    The very first recipe I found when I did my on line search and boy did I luck out – this is a great recipe and the brownies turned out fantastic! Once I nailed down the exact cooking time in my oven after a couple batches, they’re perfect every time now. Everybody I’ve shared them with has loved them. Still good well after 6 months too (I freeze wrapped them in food saver bags on baking day), although maybe a little less potent. Many thanks!

    1. Hi Johnny. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive comment. Your feedback is truly appreciated! If you have any other experiences to share, we’d love to hear from you. Keep up the great baking!

  13. Can cannibus oil be used to make these brownies instead of the cannibus butter?
    If so how much should be used.

    1. Hi Lynn. Absolutely, cannabis oil is a great alternative to cannabis butter in brownie recipes. When substituting, you’ll want to use a 1:1 ratio. This recipe calls for a 1/2 cup of butter, so you’ll want to use a 1/2 cup of oil. Happy baking!

  14. I made these into 1″ squares & sandwiched ice cream in between two. It made (25) ice cream sandwiches; delicious & satisfying.

    1. Hi Dawn. What a fantastic idea! That sounds like a deliciously creative way to enjoy this recipe. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we’re glad you found it satisfying. Keep enjoying and experimenting!

  15. 5 stars
    I’ve been making them now for a out a year with this recipe. I have to use all dark chocolate because of my niece’s allergies but OH SO GOOD! I make them with And without the cannabutter. It is now my goto brownie recipe or I’m in hot water!?
    THNX for the great treat and in less than an hour!

    1. Hi Alan. This is FANTASTIC! This is definitely my favorite brownie recipe, with or without cannabis. My kids have fun making their own batch while mommy makes her medicated batch. Thanks for sharing the love and showing your support! ??

  16. Hi Emily. First timer here to making edibles. The written recipe says to use 1/2 cup of canna butter but video shows oil. Just wondering if there is a difference. Also if I use boxed brownie mix do I just replace the oil/ butter with “canna” or continue to follow your recipe. Any info will be helpful. Thank you
    Lou

    1. Hi Lou. Butter and oil can be used interchangeably and is a matter of preference really. With boxed mixes, just replace the oil/butter with your infused oil/butter at the same measurement it calls for. I hope this helps!

  17. I have not yet used the canna butter how much would you advise to use?
    I eat edibles daily and have a high tolerance?
    I really want a new experience with these brownies

    1. Hi Mary. If you’re looking to get the most out of your cannabutter and brownies, you’ll want to use the full 1/2 cup of cannabutter that the recipe calls for. I hope this helps!

  18. I am making pot brownies for the first time…my recipe calls for 3/4 cup of unsalted butter…how much cannabutter do I use…do you the regular butter along with the cannabutter and how much?

    1. Hi Janet! It’s really a matter of personal preference and how strong you want your brownies. You can use cannabutter for the full 3/4 cup or you can divide it up with regular butter as you see fit. You want to make sure you have 3/4 cup of butter total though or it throws off the recipe. I hope this helps!

  19. 5 stars
    I melted my cannabutter when making my brownies and I think it made my measurements off. Those brownies tasted delicious but the high was too high. Cut the pan into 9th and only had half of a brownie.

    1. Hi Bryana! If the brownies are too strong, you can split the butter required with cannabutter and regular butter. Until then, small bites will do โ˜บ

    1. Hello Lucy. Is the “funny smell” a result of using bad or expired butter or a result of cooking with cannabis? In most cases, when you cook with cannabis, you will have some level of a cannabis taste and smell in your final product.

  20. If I double the batch can this allow me to make a 13×9 instead of a 8×8 and what would the cook time difference be?

    1. Hi Katie! The area of a 13×9 pan is 117 square inches. The area of a 8×8 pan is 64 square inches, which is close to half of a 13×9 pan. To go from a 8×8 pan to a 13×9 pan, you double the recipe and because there’s not a major difference in the depth, there’s no need to adjust the oven temperature or cooking time. I hope that helps!

  21. Made for the second time recently, and definitely did not overcook (added mini chips and chopped walnuts to batter, sprinkled flaked Maldon on top). These came out so fudgy! I wanted to have more than one, but I knew that would be trouble. Thank you Emily, these are amazing!

    1. Hi Lori! What a delightful twist you added! We are thrilled you love this recipe! ? Thank you for your support!

  22. Hi Emily,
    We are going to try the brownie recipe and my wife asked if there is any adjustment needed for higher altitude? We are at 4300 ft in NM.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    1. Hello Susan! This will totally depend on the strength of your starting material, cannabis, in % THC and how much you used in grams. If you know those numbers, you can input them into this edible dosage calculator to get an estimate ?

  23. 4 stars
    Hey! Does this recipe work without granulated sugar or cannabis sugar? Its a bit hard to make where i’m from.

    1. Hello there! It will definitely work without the cannabis sugar, but I do not think it will work without granulated sugar (or any sugar). Or, I should say, I’ve never tested it this way, so I can’t say for sure. If you try it, let us know how it turns out ๐Ÿ˜€

  24. Is there a reason it needs to be a metal baking dish? I’m new to making edibles – this will be my first time, and I have glass baking dishes that size but not a metal one.

    1. Hello Robin! It should not make a huge difference, but your baking time may increase or decrease by a few minutes. Just watch them at the end ๐Ÿ™‚

  25. About to try this recipe…I assume I will need a bit less if using cacao powder vs cocoa powder, yeah? any recommendation on how much? thanks!

    1. Hey John! My apologies, but I haven’t tested the recipe with cacao powder, so I can’t give you a good answer. If you experimented and it turned out well, please let us know what you used ๐Ÿ™‚

    Love these brownies. Feeling crazy and going to add some cheese cake mixing on top. Worst case I can take it off and still have great brownies.

    1. Hello Marissa, thank you so much for letting me know you love them ๐Ÿ˜€ How did the cheesecake mix turn out?

  27. Just a quick question for a newbie.
    Can the left over flower after infusion be added to the brownie mix when making?
    Iโ€™m trying to work out what to do with it after making the infused coconut oil.
    Thank you for the very informative posts

  28. Hello, is it ok to add cannabis oil instead of canna butter/ cannabis coconut oil? Bc itโ€™s so hard to find or make.

  29. Hi! I was wondering if you had an estimate of how many mg of thc there is in this recipe if it calls for a 1/2 cup of cannabutter. I know every strand is different but just an approximate guess, or guess of how many mg are in each serving.

    1. Hey Jess! It’s really too hard to give a random amount because it depends on A. how strong the flower is and B. how much flower you added to the cannabutter. If you know those numbers, you can use my edible dosage calculator to get a guesstimate ๐Ÿ™‚

  30. 5 stars
    I’ve made these brownies probably 50 times at least and they’re always a big hit ??? I’m actually getting ready to make a batch right now and figured I’d leave my thoughts ?

  31. Hello! This looks awesome and I can’t wait to try it! Is there a reason why the recipe doesn’t contain sunflower lecithin or is it the assumption that it was added into the oil/cannabutter pre-infusion? Thanks for the treasure trove of information!

    1. Hey Tish! Thanks so much for stopping by. Lecithin is not needed for the structural integrity of this recipe (like in gummies). If you want to add it for bioavailability reasons, if it’s not already in your oil or butter, I would add just a half teaspoon to the batter ๐Ÿ™‚

  32. What affects the cannobutter. Sometimes they put me in a coma. Other times nothing. What is going ?

    1. Hi John. Are you starting with a different product or strain each time you make a batch? Different strains of cannabis can contain variable amounts of THC and can affect us differently.
