Ok, So I made Canna Butter for the first time...

Cookie recipe I used:

Peanut (Canna) Butter Cookie Recipe:
1 cup Canna Butter (2 Sticks)
1 cup Peanut Butter (Creamy or Crunchy)
1 cup White Sugar
1 cup Brown Sugar
2 Eggs
2 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda

Directions:
1. Cream together butter, peanut butter and sugars. Beat in eggs.
2. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir into batter. Put batter in refrigerator for 1 hour.
3. Roll into 1 inch balls and put on baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern.
4. Bake @ 305 degrees F for 15 minutes.
5. After 15 minutes keep an eye on cookies and remove from oven when cookies are done to how you like them.

Well I made some cannabutter from only one plant a friend gave me. Not sure if it was male, or female but it wasn't budding yet it was just all the trim. I only got about 6 teaspoons worth, and I basically just put it on the spoon and ate it. It tasted horrible on bread made me gag. I got pretty high off of it. I'm thinking maybe you need to ingest a good bit, but like you said you ingested what 8? I'm not sure. Maybe you're not giving yourself enough time for it to kick in. After I ate the butter it took a few hours to kick in, but lasted for a while.

Maybe you need to eat something before eating the cookies so those don't digest as fast. Especially since they're all sugar they dissolve pretty fast. Next time try brownies instead.

Well I finished off the last two peanut butter cookies today. I made 36 cookies and 7 were eaten by others. So I ate 29 myself. Lol. I didn't so much as feel a thing from them, I wish I knew why. In the end I just ended up eating them as if they were a normal snack.

Like I said, I woke up one morning and ate two slices of well buttered cinnamon toast. That was at like 8am and I didnt smoke untill early afternoon. 1 or 2 pm. I would think that would be more than enough time for me to feel something.

I've had edibles in the past and not once have they ever worked for me. Now that I'm growing I'm making my own under my own controlled conditions with the same results?

I'd like to know if some people flat out don't feel anything from edibles? Or is that just bullshit?
See any errors in how I made my canna butter? Or how I cooked the cookies?

Maybe I just need to only use bud instead of bud with trim?

Anyway...

I was going to make more butter today but decided not to until I got some answers. However, it's funny you should mention brownies because I used my last 2 sticks of butter from my last batch and made some today.

I cut them into (mostly) 2"x2" pieces. The recipe I used was solid and these brownies taste pretty damn good. I may have over cooked them? Theyr'e really "fudgy". heh. I have already eaten 4 pieces. I still don't feel anything. Oh well, At least they taste good.

Brownie Recipe:
2 cups White Sugar
1 cup Canna Butter (2 Sticks)
1/2 cup Cocoa Powder
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
4 eggs
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup Walnuts (Halves or Crumbled)

Directions:
1.) Melt the butter and mix all ingredients in the order given.
2.) Bake @ 305 degrees F for 50 to 60 minutes in a 9 x 13 inch greased pan.

That is why I posted the recipes I used. I kind of thought it answered itself. I've never seen a boxed recipe that had more ingredients than oil, eggs & the box mix itself. But I don't know every recipe nor have I seen every boxed brand so maybe it was my mistake.

In any case any help would be appreciated, if you have any to offer? I have gone over what I have done and been reading what I can and although I see different variations of what I have done, I don't see any mistakes?

The one thing I can say I do differently cause u and I make ours the same way only I throw a shot of 100 proof vodka in with the weed and butter then let it all come to a boil together(low boil) for about 30min or so strain and let cool. From what I understand the alcohol helps break down the oils in the plant so the bond to the fat in the butter easier. Other than that I'd say ur butter was just too weak 4 u, instead of making a whole pound u can start off just making like a stick at a time. That way u can kinda figure out how much weed needs to be in each batch so it works 4 u.
