Spicy Baking 

Words by The Salient Blizzard (bling/blong)


You either love edibles, or you absolutely hate them. They take around 20 minutes to an hour (maybe even two) to hit, and the baking takes even longer. So, is it worth it? Your lungs will thank you, that's for sure. Just for this issue, we tested out a recipe and confirmed it works. Here it is in two forms: budget and fancy (AKA your paycheck just came in).


Both of these recipes keep the weed in—you don’t have to wait for the weed butter to sit overnight and then strain it! 



*Brownies:*


  • Premade brownie mix (this will probably tell you to get eggs or an egg replacement too)

  • Decent amount of butter or substitute (1/8 of a tub or so)

  • Decent amount of peanut or some other sort of nut butter (half a jar)

  • Tinfoil

  • Shweed (I recommend at least a hundy bag or 7 grams)

  • A grinder or scissors (if you must)



Method:


  1. Preheat your oven to 120-130 degrees celsius. 

  2. Grind up your bud.

  3. Roll out a sheet of tinfoil and place your ground weed inside. Wrap it up real good in a little parcel. Make sure there are no holes, otherwise you will have burnt, unusable weed.

  4. Decarbing time! Put your weed in the oven for 25-30 minutes max. Stay close to the oven to catch any burnt odours. Ideally, your kitchen smells like 70s disco. If you hate the smell of weed, sorry.  

  5. Leave your weed to cool down for 15 minutes.

  6. Melt your butter and add it to your peanut butter. Add your weed and stir real good!!! Add this to the rest of your brownie mix. 

  7. Pop the mix in a baking dish and cover it with tinfoil. Bake for 30 minutes.

  8. Let them cool down first and then chop them up into pieces. Enjoy!

  9. These can be lethal. Please wait at least 45 minutes before deeming your edible ‘ain’t shit’ and having more.   




*Firecrackers:*


  • Tablespoon of butter or a substitute

  • Peanut or some sort of other nut butter

  • Crackers or wine biscuits

  • Tinfoil

  • Shweed (Depends on how many you’re making and how strong you want them. You probably want around two cones worth per firecracker)

  • A grinder or scissors (if you must)


Method:


  1. Preheat your oven to 120-130 degrees celsius.

  2. Grind or chop up your bud.

  3. Roll out a sheet of tinfoil and place your ground weed inside. Wrap it up real good in a little parcel. Make sure there are no holes, otherwise you will have burnt, unusable weed.

  4. Decarbing time! Put your weed in the oven for 25-30 minutes max. Stay close to the oven to catch any burnt odours. Ideally your kitchen smells like a 70s disco. If you hate the smell of weed, sorry.  

  5. Leave your weed to cool down for 15 minutes.

  6. Prepare a bowl of peanut butter with some melted butter in it. Add in your cooled down weed and stir up well. You can add some Nutella to this to make it more fun.

  7. Lather your special spread on your crackers/wine biscuits.

  8. Make a little tinfoil parcel for each edible.

  9. Bake these for 20 minutes.

  10. Let them cool down first and then enjoy!

  11. These can be lethal. Please wait at least 45 min before deeming your edible ‘ain’t shit’ and having more.
