Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Unslated butter
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 oz Some funky Cannabis (grow your own!)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 240°
  • Break up your weed into small pieces, but don't grind it up into powder. Keep it in little chunks about the size of a BB. Spread evenly across a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so.
  • Remove it from the oven and let it cool.
  • Melt the butter and water over low heat in a saucepan
  • Add your weed to the saucepan and stir until it is fully coated with butter.
  • Simmer on LOW heat for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally. DO NOT let the mixture boil.
  • Remove saucepan from heat and let it cool.
  • Use a cheesecloth to line a mesh liner and place it over a heat-resistant container.
  • Pour the cannabis butter mixture through the strainer, pressing on the cannabis to extract all the liquid.
  • The cannabis butter should cool to room temperature. Pour in butter mold, then cover and refrigerate until it is solid.
  • When the butter is solid, discard any leftover water.
  • IMPORTANT: Make sure to label your cannabis so everyone knows what it is!
