Welcome to Cannabis School. I'm your host, Jesse Angeles. And I'm Brandon Elder. And we're here to talk to you about everything pertaining to cannabis from vape, flour, edibles. Strains. And everything in between. Welcome back everyone. Hey guys, today we're going to have some fun. We've been talking about edibles a lot, and today we're making a special one. This recipe actually comes straight from my wife's cookbook. These are Stephanie's brownies, and they're amazing.
That's right, Stephanie's brownies. But today we're giving them a little twist by infusing them. Exactly. So if you ever make these and decide to infuse them, Brandon's going to show us how we're doing that today. I infuse some coconut oil with about 600 milligrams of one of our favorite strains, Delicata grapes. Nice delicata grapes is fantastic, super chill strain. I've never had an an edible before so this is going to be interesting. Same here. I'm really excited about this
one. Now. For those of you following along, we'll put a dosage calculator link below. That way you can calculate the right potency for your own edibles. Yeah, it's a much better way to measure than just throwing in a bunch of ground up flour and the brownie batter that always ends up with random chunks of weed and plant in your dessert. Nasty. For this infusion I used coconut oil. I decarp 2G of flour and a glass Pyrex dish at 240Ā°F for about 35 minutes.
So 240 Fahrenheit for 35 minutes. Got it. After that, I added one tablespoon of coconut oil to the decarb flour and let it infuse in the oven for another 45 minutes at the same temperature. So 35 minutes to decarb and another 45 minutes with the oil. That makes sense. Yeah, once that was done, I strained out the plant material using a fine mesh strainer, leaving behind just the infused coconut oil.
That's awesome, and since it's just one tablespoon, it won't mess with the consistency of the brownies or anything. It'll make them even easier to pull out of the pan is what I'm thinking. Exactly. Just swap out one tablespoon of whatever fat your recipe calls for it with this infused oil. All right, time to start making these brownies. First we need to cream the butter. It's better with if the butter is at room temperature. Mine was in the freezer so it's
a bit cold. Yeah, looks like you're trying to mash it to warm it up. You know, some people beat their meat, but Jesse, he beats his butter. Yep, got to soften it up. Also I should probably close the windows. My neighbors. That's weird dude. Yep, got to soften them up. Just kind of mash these up with my hand, make them all warm and mashed up. Or you could just stream it live on YouTube. Jesse's butter beating tutorials. I feel that they attract the
wrong audience. Anyway, back to the brownies. We've got the butter creamed and now it's time to add the sugar. The original recipe calls for two cups of sugar. Yeah, let's do 1 1/2 cups instead. I do have diabetes, so let's not push this over the edge. Shit, that's a lot. Should we cut it down? Next, we need to add the eggs, and we need to do this one at a time. Good call.
All right, mixing that in. There's a video I saw once where a guy got roasted in the comments for cracking eggs with two hands, so we cracked 1 using his butt cheeks instead. What? Yeah, like full on clenched and crushed it. That's impressive. Right. OK, eggs are in. Now we add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Eyeballing this one. Boom, done.
Now for the dry ingredients, we need one and three quarter cup flour, 6 tablespoons cocoa powder, one teaspoon baking powder and a quarter teaspoon salt. I always add a little extra salt to balance out the sweetness. Makes everything taste better. Jesse's a salty bitch. Yep, that's me, Mr. Salty. Bet too. So now we decide on how potent we want these brownies. Right. We have 600 milligrams total infused into one tablespoon of coconut oil.
If we use the full tablespoon and cut the brownies into 15 pieces, each one would be 40 milligrams. It's a bit strong, so let's cut that in half. Good call. We'll add a teaspoon and a half of infused oil, which gives us 300 milligrams total, meaning each brownie would be about 20 milligrams.
Perfect. Now let's warm the oil just a bit and mix it in. Pro tip, if you're in an apartment and don't want your place smelling like weed, you can do all of the decarb and infusing of the flour and the oil all in a sealed Mason jar in the oven. It just helps keep that smell contained. Dude, that's a. That's a solid hack all. Right, batter's done. Let's spread it in a 13 by 9
inch pan and bake. The recipe says 350 for 25 to 30 minutes, but if you're worried about preserving the cannabinoids, you can bake it at 3:25 for 40 minutes instead. We'll do 325Ā° today and just use the toothpick test to check when they're done. Sounds good. Into the oven they go. All right, well, these bake. Let's talk about dosing. I always think about my buddy Matt's first brownie experience. Each one was 115 milligrams and he had no idea. Yeah, that's why calculating
your dose is important. If you want a micro dose, you could make the whole tray just 50 milligrams total and eat freely. Exactly, just break it down into a dose that works for you and never make the mistake of thinking I don't feel anything yet and eating more. That's how you meet edible Chewbacca. Oh man, I still remember my first time driving home and then suddenly Chewbacca's chilling in the passenger seat next to me while we're both blasting off into lightspeed.
Edibles hit different. All right, let's check back once these are done. Bacon. Stay tuned. OK, kids, so we're back and one of the really cool things is that we messed up on the audio. And so you're going to be hearing voice over before this. So that's fun, but no big deal because it's happened before. We've done it so many times. OK, so here's your brownies again. We put it in there at 3:25 instead of 350 and we did it for about. Let me know if it's about. 40 minutes, OK.
All right. So I'm going to bust one of these out. Before we frost it. And well, you can frost it, it's an option, but. The recipe for the frosting is also on there, so don't worry, you'll be able to see that. If you like a lot of sugar, Brandon and I are not big frickers. Well, we do like it and we know it's not good for us. Yeah, I'm trying not to be diabetic. And Dusty Arity is diabetic, yes. Still, you know, a little bit of caution to the way in it. OK, so again, here's the brownie.
It's very cakey, as you can see, but the frosting on top of it. I don't smell any cannabis. I don't. Smell it. It could be because of the lower dose try could use frosting, but it's still really good. It's not too sugary. It's a very cakey consistency. Until, like the next day, their money, they're stuck. In. So if you're planning a little get together, maybe you're going camping, you want to bring something really good for everybody.
Maybe Nana has been a little too bitchy lately and you need to drop something by. Or maybe you just want to have that ward party be a little bit more elevated and closer to the Spirit. Probably hilarious. You know, if I was that type of person, I totally would just go drop off a plate of brownies, but I feel like I'm not that type of person. No. You're not That's OK, But I I do think it would be quite, quite funny. But then you'd see it on the news of like. How can you?
Well, there was a there was a whole thing in Florida, like some person dosed the entire meal, didn't tell anybody. For a wedding party. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw that and it was like they were getting sued because not all of their party knew or wanted something. They're like what? Yeah, don't dose your friends without them knowing just. It's.
Kind of a fucked up dude. It sounds like that one thing with Ari Shapir and Bert Kreischer, you're going to see that duty dosed Bert Kreischer with Molly without telling him, and he had a four hour flight to get on after that podcast. I mean, he was freaking out. That's got to be so hard. I can't imagine like going so good. Gosh. I was talking to someone yesterday and he was telling me that he likes to take about 5 grams of mushrooms and then go to a concert.
I can't imagine going out and up doing that on 5 grams of fresh that sounds. Horrendous. That's like deep introspection, like trying to process some stuff. Yeah. Are you being in full hallucination mode by that side? And it'd be so difficult to discern what's OK and what's not now. We did brownies today. We got some plants and we'll put it down there. We'll put a hole in there. What do you want next? You want a hard candy? No gummy. Would you want it in fears on the build?
Right pasta meal from scratch. Oh yeah, I like to learn cheese meals. Those are some of my favorite ways to do edibles Is actually just cannabis and cheese meal I. Don't know, depend on the strain too because like Brandon had frosted flakes like you said. Yeah, very Piney notes on them. But I do know notice that with frosted flakes when I have a higher dose for a large amount I feel a little bit dopey. Yeah. Not like super dopey but like it's it's a good chill of mine kind of like.
