Important Edible Safety Note
Cannabis edibles can take longer to feel than inhaled cannabis and may last longer. Potency depends on the cannabutter, the amount used, how evenly it is mixed, and the serving size. Start with a low serving, wait before taking more, label infused foods clearly, and store them securely away from children, pets, and anyone who could mistake them for non-infused food. This recipe is for adults in places where cannabis use is legal; follow your local laws.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh cherries, pitted
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp cannabutter
- Sea salt or edible glitter (optional)
Equipment
- Saucepan or pot
- Parchment paper
Before You Start
Measure the cannabutter before melting the chocolate, dip 15 to 20 cherries, and chill the tray until the coating sets.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Melt chocolate with cannabutter in microwave or double boiler.
- Dip cherries, letting excess drip off.
- Set on parchment. Sprinkle toppings.
- Chill until set.
- Portion into 15 to 20 cherries.
Dosing and Portioning Notes
Potency depends on the strength of your cannabutter, the amount used, how evenly it is mixed, and the final serving size. If the cannabutter is not labeled with usable potency information, dosing cannot be calculated from the recipe alone. Use the listed 15 to 20 cherries to plan measured portions, and calculate dose from the labeled infusion strength before eating.
Tips for Best Results
- Warm the cannabutter only enough to mix smoothly, and avoid high heat once it has been added.
Storage and Serving
Serve immediately. For safety, make only what you plan to serve and do not store infused leftovers.
Keep infused food counted, clearly labeled, and secured until serving. Do not leave infused food on counters, tables, or anywhere children, pets, or guests could reach it by accident. Discard anything that was left out, unlabeled, unattended, or cannot be clearly identified.
