Cannabis is now Class B

Don’t worry though! Our awesome Smoking Mixtures do the trick and are totally legal!
According to our government, amphetamine (speed) is as bad for us as cannabis – what other message could reclassification send?

Your typical cannabis smoker tends to

1. stay indoors
2. chillax
3. get through a lot of crisps

Your typical whizzkid tends to

1. go out a lot
2. get somewhat overconfident and aggressive
3. listen to awesome drum ‘n’ bass
4. approach the speed of light (literally*)

*Not literally

I’m not necessarily knocking amphetamine or it’s users, just pointing out that drugs are a class apart. Oh no, wait.

Check out the (now out of date) graph below, placing drugs from most harmful on the left to least harmful on the right.The score assigned to each drug takes into account harm to yourself and to society as a whole, and what’s that… alcohol and tobacco are more harmful than the class A drugs LSD and ecstasy! Considering that the link between cannabis and schizophrenia is as tenuous as ever (why isn’t the Netherlands one big psych ward?), why is our government ignoring it’s own scientists? Religion has more regard for evidence than Mr. Brown (and that’s saying something!) If you want to learn more about just how stupid our current classification system is, you can watch this episode of BBC’s Horizon, which tackles each drug in turn. (49 mins)

This recipe is just a quick one to follow on from the cannabutter and infamous hash brownie recipe I posted recently. Even without the cannabutter, these cookies are amazing. Here goes:

Method

1. First, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy.
2. Add the egg, vanilla essence, flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt and fold in.
3. Next, add the cereal and chocolate and mix thoroughly.
4. Drop small spoonfuls onto a greased baking tray, around 5cm/2in apart.
5. Bake at 180ºC (350F or Gas Mark 4) for 10-12 minutes.

Enjoy!

Introduction

Although I do say so myself, this is the ULTIMATE Hash Brownie recipe. So good in fact, we recommend trying them without Cannabis Butter, because you’ll want to eat so many of them. They’re very moreish so take care if you do make the cannabis version – it can take up to 45 minutes to feel the effects, so don’t just eat more and more – it could get very messy! If you want to learn how to make hash brownies, this is the article for you.

Ingredients

Hash Brownies

• 4oz (115g) Cannabis Butter
• 2oz (60g) Self Raising Flour
• 8oz (225g) Soft Brown Sugar
• 1.5oz (45g) Cocoa Powder (NOT Drinking Chocolate Powder)
• 1oz (30g) Ground Almonds
• 2 Eggs
• Grated Rind Of One Large Orange (Important!)
• 1/2tsp Baking Powder

Chocolate Butter Icing/Frosting

Making icing for a cake really isn’t an exact science – it’s difficult to give amounts as you may have a different sized baking tray meaning more or less brownies, or you may just have a different personal preference. The following amounts are a guideline so feel free to tweak as you wish!

• 4oz (115g) NORMAL Butter or Margarine
• 1 – 2oz (30 – 60g) Cocoa Powder
• 8 – 10oz (225 – 285g) Icing (Powdered/Confectioners) Sugar
• 2tsp Water, as needed
• Maltesers (optional, but totally worth it)

Equipment

• Kitchen Scales
• Sieve
• Large mixing bowl
• Wooden spoon
• Shallow baking tray
• Greaseproof paper / Wax paper

Method – Hash Brownie Base

1. First, sieve the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder into a large mixing bowl.
2. Add the ground almonds, sugar and orange rind and mix together well.
3. Next, add the butter and eggs and beat the mixture together until smooth.
4. Bake at 150ºC (300F or Gas Mark 2), in a shallow dish, greased and lined with greaseproof (wax) paper for 50 – 55 minutes.

Method – Chocolate Butter Icing/Frosting

1. Just mix together the ingredients in a bowl and spread over the top of the brownie.
2. As an optional tasty extra, smash up a couple of packets of Maltesers and sprinkle them over the top. Do this straight away so they will stick in the icing rather than just fall off when you try and take a bite!
3. Cut into at least 16 pieces and serve! If it’s your first time cooking with cannabis, be sensible and don’t have more than one or two in the space of an hour, no matter how absolutely fantastic they taste.

Enjoy!

Introduction

This recipe produces a small amount of cannabis-infused butter, or cannabutter, which can be used in a massive range of recipes to add that extra kick! If your recipe requires more butter than the amounts given here, feel free to multiply up all the amounts.

Ingredients

• 4oz (115g) Butter or Margarine
• 1/8oz (3.5g) Cannabis buds/hash OR
• 1/4oz (7g) Cannabis leaves

Equipment

• Small saucepan
• Wooden spoon
• Sieve (optional)

Method

1. Melt the butter slowly in a pan. Add 1/8 oz (3.5g) finely ground cannabis, and simmer on a low heat for around 30 minutes. This allows the cannabis to infuse fully into the butter. Take care to keep the heat low, and stir continuously as the butter can burn easily.
2. After 30 minutes, pour the butter into a jug or tub. As you do this, if you want to remove the bud/hash/leaf, you can pass it through a fine sieve. You won’t be wasting any “good stuff”, since all the THC should have dissolved into the butter, but if you don’t mind getting green bits in your teeth, you can just as easily leave it in.
3. Allow the cannabutter to set for around an hour, or until relatively hard, before using.
