Storage Instructions
Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days in your refrigerator. If you don't think you will consume it with in seven days, freezing the fudge in individual portions is a great way to save it and preserve the potency.
Alternate Cannabis Infusion Options
Thankfully, there is more than one way to infuse edible recipes. Below we will explore all of the different ways you could infuse this recipe.
Cannabutter or Oil
Starting with cannabis butter is the most popular way to infuse this recipe. You can make it in a crockpot or Instant Pot.
Both cannabutter and coconut oil harden when cool, making them perfect consistency for fudge.
I haven't tried it myself, but I do not think liquid cannabis oil like olive oil, MCT oil, vegetable oil or hash oil would work well in this recipe.
Cannabis Concentrates
Concentrates are the easiest way to make a potent cannabis fudge recipe, especially if you have access to medical marijuana.
Whether it be CBD distillate or FECO, wax or shatter, all options work here.
Just be sure to check if the concentrate or extract needs to be decarbed first. Then add as many mg THC as desired.
Decarbed Cannabis Flower
While not my favorite way to infuse a recipe, using just decarbed cannabis flower works here.
Just be sure to grind it up extra fine so the texture does not interfere with the final product.
Using decarbed kief is also a great option. You likely only want to add a gram of weed or two here, depending on how potent you want it to be.
Adjust the amount of cannabis to your own personal needs.
Cannabis Sugar
This will require you to make a from-scratch fudge mixture. A standard recipe calls for sugar, cocoa powder, milk, butter, and vanilla extract.
Just swap your cannabis sugar for the granulated sugar.
Additional Toppings
For a micro dose option, you can infuse this fudge with cannabis salt or cannabis peanut butter.
Combination
You could combine any of the options above for an infusion of cannabis extracts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Cannabis fudge can be brand new to even the most seasoned cannabis consumer, so here are some of the most common FAQs I get asked about making from my Well With Cannabis Community.
I haven't done it myself, but it should work. Keep the understanding that you should never microwave your cannabutter. If you want to do this, add the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk to a large microwave safe mixing bowl and heat in 30-second increments until they are melted completely. Then gently stir in the cannabutter.
Regular peanut butter and chocolate chips for sure. Fruit could even be a cool option, if you're feeling it!
Yes, simply half this recipe if needed.
Yes, just double check that all of the ingredients you are using are gluten free. Check out my full selection of gluten-free edibles here.
