Perfectly spiced and packed with festive cheer, these cookies are a fun and delicious way to enjoy cannabis during the holidays. Whether you’re sharing them at a gathering or enjoying them solo by the fire, Clarity Cannabis has you covered with this simple and festive recipe.
What You’ll Need
Ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ cup cannabis-infused butter (see our blog post on how to make cannabis-infused butter)
- ½ cup unsalted butter (optional for a milder infusion)
- ¾ cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup molasses
- 1 large egg
For Decorating (Optional):
- Royal icing or pre-made icing
- Festive sprinkles or candies
Let’s Bake!
1. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves. Set aside.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cannabis butter, unsalted butter (if using), and brown sugar until fluffy.
3. Add Wet Ingredients
Mix in the molasses and egg until well combined.
4. Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. Divide the dough into two discs, wrap them in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to make rolling easier.
5. Roll and Cut Shapes
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about ¼-inch thickness. Use holiday-themed cookie cutters to create festive shapes like gingerbread people, snowflakes, or trees.
6. Bake
Place the cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a little space between them. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are firm. Let the cookies cool completely before decorating.
7. Decorate (Optional but Fun!)
Get creative with icing and festive sprinkles! Decorate your cookies with holiday designs to make them extra special.
Dosing Tips
- The potency of your cookies depends on the strength of your cannabis-infused butter and the number of cookies you make.
- Start with a small dose (around 5mg THC per cookie) and adjust the amount of cannabis butter in the recipe to achieve the desired potency.
- Always label infused cookies and store them securely to avoid accidental consumption.
Why These Cookies Are a Holiday Must
Cannabis-infused gingerbread cookies are a perfect blend of festive tradition and modern relaxation. They make great gifts for your cannabis-loving friends or a delightful treat for your own holiday enjoyment. Pair them with a cup of infused tea or hot cocoa for the ultimate cozy evening!
