What You’ll Need

A white marble countertop with the ingredients needed to make cannabis chocolate chip cookies including cannabutter, chocolate chips, white sugar, egg, salt, vanilla, baking powder and flour
  • 1¼ cups all-purpose flour: white, all-purpose, AP flour works best in this recipe
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda: don’t confuse this for baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt: kosher salt or table salt works
  • ½ cup cannabutter: Buy my Bliss Cannabutter or make your own. This should be softened to room temperature for the best results.
  • ¾ cup sugar: I use white sugar, but you could substitute cannasugar or dark brown sugar
  • 1 egg: for consistency
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract: for taste
  • 1 cup optional toppings: This cookie batter is a blank canvas. Add chocolate chips, M&M’s, sea salt, or even your favorite healthy ingredients, like nuts. 

Note: a complete list of ingredients with amounts and printable instructions is located in the recipe card below.

Dosing & Potency

Dosing this recipe couldn’t be easier if you use my Bliss Cannabutter.

You can use the printable chart below to determine the exact amount of butter to use to get your desired THC milligrams per batch or cookie. 

If you are not using Bliss Cannabutter, my edible dosage calculator is another great way to determine your cookies’ potency.

  • Step 3 – In another large bowl, cream the sugar and cannabutter with a hand mixer until light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
  • Step 4 – Add the egg and vanilla to the creamed butter bowl.

Alternate Infusion Options

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

Below we will explore how you could infuse these powerful little treats with your favorite secret ingredient.

  • Cannabis sugar: You can make these cookies with cannabis sugar if you have some. 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: Easily make these cookies with concentrates like distillate or FECO. Just be sure to check if your concentrate needs to be decarbed first. Then, simply mix the concentrate with ½ cup of normal 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, be sure to evaporate the alcohol and make FECO first.
  • Decarbed Flower: You can add decarbed flower or decarbed kief right into the flour mixture. Just be mindful of adding the right dose for you, especially if you are not a regular consumer of edibles.

Notes and Expert Tips

  • Baking note: All ovens bake at different temperatures, and 9 minutes is the average baking time. Some ovens will bake quicker, so check your cookies for your desired doneness between 7-10 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 smokingtinctures, lotions, or other methods. Your experience may also differ if you use an Indica or Sativa strain.
  • Edibles have a delayed onset: Edibles 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 own endocannabinoid system.
  • Be prepared: Learn how to easily make the staple recipes needed to infuse this recipe, like cannabutter and cannabis sugar, with my Cannabis Cookbook.
  • 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 CBD chocolate chip cookies?

Yes, check out my guide for making CBD chocolate chip cookies here.

Can I make this recipe gluten-free?

So many great gluten-free flour alternatives swap pretty well for traditional all-purpose flour. You can grab gluten-free all-purpose flour at most grocery stores. This is the I recommend for gluten-free baking.

Can I make this recipe dairy-free?

Yes! To make delicious dairy-free cannabis chocolate chip cookies, you want to make sure you do two things: 1. Use cannabis coconut oil instead of cannabutter 2. Verify your chocolate chips are dairy-free. This is the brand I recommend for dairy-free baking.

Can I add other natural flavorings?

Yes, this dough is similar to sugar cookies, making it easy to customize these sweet treats. Just add a small amount if you’re adding an extract like vanilla, lemon, mint, or almond extract, as the natural and artificial flavors can be overwhelming.

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. If this is your first time, know that you will need to know how much cannabis you added in weight and how potent it is in percent.

How can I manage the munchies?

Edibles can give you the munchies, which may not always be a good thing. Cannabis can help with weight loss, but only in the right circumstances. Check out these healthy cannabis recipes if you need something different!

  1. Hi there, I had a question. I’ve been making edibles for quite some time, and in fact your Rice Krispies recipe was the first one I ever tried.

    I prefer to use coconut oil in my recipes as it really reduces the cannabis taste while still delivering potent results. The only problem is the batter is usually way too wet, so I end up having to add more flour. I have seen butter and coconut oil used interchangeably but I don’t know how to account for the additional liquid in the recipe.

  2. Hello Ashley! The volume should remain the same when using coconut oil in place of butter. Are you melting your coconut oil? This can make it seem more liquidy. Maybe try working with it at room temperature when it is solid.

  3. Making butter for the first time. How much butter do u put in the mason jars please and thank you.

  4. 5 stars
    Love this recipe. Quick and easy to make. I used brown sugar and substituted pecans for 1/2 cup of chocolate chips.

  5. Hi Debra. Those sound like delicious adjustments! I love it. Thank you for sharing. ?

  6. 5 stars
    I baked mine at a lower temp, 250 for 15 minutes. They’re really tasty- was trying to save as much of the thc as possible in the baking process.

  7. Hi Puteri. If stored in an airtight container at room temperature, they’ll be good for up to 7 days. These cannabis cookies have the same shelf life as any other cookies. 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.
