Step 12 – Enjoy! If not enjoying right away, here are Storage Instructions:
- These cannabis chocolate chip cookies have the same shelf life as other cookies. Store them at room temperature for up to seven days. Freeze after seven days to prevent spoilage. Additionally, storing these cookies in an air-tight container with a slice of bread will keep them soft and moist. Learn more about how to store edibles here.

Alternate Infusion Options

As with all things edibles, there is more than one way to infuse something.

Below, we will explore how to infuse these mighty little treats with your favorite secret ingredient.

Cannabutter: This is the most popular way to infuse. You can buy my Bliss cannabutter or make your own on the stovetop, with a crockpot, in an Instant Pot, with kief, or even CBD. You can adjust the amount of cannabutter used alongside regular butter to control your dose if needed.
Cannabis oil: Coconut oil is a popular staple recipe essential for every kitchen; however, using liquid oils, like MCT oil or olive oil, may negatively affect the final product.
Cannabis sugar: If you have cannabis sugar, you can make these cookies with it. Simply swap the infused sugar for white sugar.
Both: You could use infused oil or butter and infused sugar for an extra potent batch of cookies.
Concentrates and extracts: You can easily make these cookies with concentrates like distillate or FECO. Just be sure to check if your concentrate needs to be decarbed first. Then, mix the concentrate with ½ cup of regular butter or organic coconut oil, and then prepare the recipe according to the instructions below with your butter mixture.
Tincture: If you want to use an alcohol tincture in this recipe, evaporate the alcohol and make FECO first.
Decarbed Flower: Add decarbed flower or decarbed kief into the flour mixture. Just be mindful of adding the right dose, especially if you are not yet comfortable with your edible tolerance.

Notes and Expert Tips

Baking note: All ovens bake at different temperatures; the average baking time is 8 minutes. Some ovens will bake quicker, so check your cookies for your desired doneness between 7 and 9 minutes. Bake time will also depend on the size of your dough balls. Small balls will bake faster than larger ones. Adjust accordingly to find your perfect texture.
Edibles can be potent: If you have never had edibles before, it is essential to note that they will likely affect you differently than smoking, tinctures, lotions, or other methods. Your experience may also differ if you use an Indica or Sativa strain.
Edibles have a delayed onset: They take 30 minutes to several hours to hit and can last 6-12 hours, so don’t reach for that second helping so quickly! You want to make sure your high time is a good time. If you accidentally get too high, check out these solutions here.
Be safe: When it comes to cannabis edibles, please start low and go SLOW! Your experience will be entirely dependent on your endocannabinoid system.
Be prepared: With my Cannabis Cookbook, you can easily make the staple recipes needed to infuse this recipe, like cannabutter and cannabis sugar.
Gift mindfully: these great-tasting cookies make great gifts for a holiday party or special occasion. Just be mindful of the amount of THC you add to your edible recipes if you give them away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this recipe with FECO, RSO, or other concentrates?

Yes, you sure can! First, decide how much FECO, RSO, or other concentrate you want to use. Then, gently warm 1/2 cup of regular butter on the stovetop. Once fully liquid, add the concentrate and stir well until the butter and concentrate are fully combined. Allow the infusion to return to room temperature before adding to the recipe.

How to calculate the mg of THC in each cookie?

If you’re using cannabutter, your first step will be to know how much THC is in your batch of cannabutter. Use my popular edible dosage calculator if you need help with this.
