Who doesn’t love chocolate? These cannabis chocolates are divine. The key is to use dark cocoa. The bitterness plays well with the cannabis flavor. You can adjust the levels of dark and regular cocoa to your liking.
Use a double boiler, pyrex bowl over a pot, hot plate, etc. to melt the ingredients. Any indirect heat may be used for the melting process.
Level: Easy
Yield: 30 candies (depending on size)
Time: 15 minutes (plus cool time)
Ingredients
1 cup cannabis coconut oil
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup dark cocoa powder
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon of vanilla
Dash of coarse/sea salt
Directions
Using candy molds makes it very easy. You can also use ice cube trays, mini muffin pans, etc. After they have cooled and hardened, these chocolates melt very easily. So be cautious of them and heat. You can store in airtight containers or bags in the refrigerator.
I prefer to also add a dash of cayenne pepper to the mixture. Kicks it up a notch! Feel free to infuse your chocolate with nuts, flavoring, spices, dried fruits, etc. The possibilities are endless.
You can dip Cannabis Infused Caramels into the chocolate before it hardens. Give yourself a double dose!
