:leaf:I need Christmas recipes for special presents.
We all have some thing we make for the Christmas holidays right?? Now the smart ones here will all go then why is this guy asking then????
I just thought it would be nice to have a thread with fudge, cookies, hard peppermint candy etc.
I'm really only good at brownies and those aren't special enough for Christmas.
So bring it on and don't be afraid to spread the knowledge..

Hey dirtsurfr! I got a couple for you...how about some peanut butter fudge?

Line bottom and sides of an 8x8 pan with foil or wax or parchment and spray with no-stick (or grease with your cannabutter;)

1 cup smooth peanut butter
1 cup *unsalted cannabutter ( I use unsalted for everything- I control the sodium)
1/4 tsp salt
1tsp vanilla
1 lb powdered sugar

Place peanut butter, canna butter and salt in a large microwaveable bowl and melt in microwave until completely melted, about 2 minutes if using reg peanut butter. If using natural, it will liquify faster. Stir in the vanilla and powdered sugar ( I use a mixer and whip it up for a couple minutes making it lighter). Spread the fudge into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with an offset spatula or spoon. Cover and place in the fridge until cool.
To serve, cut into 1 in pieces. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Great idea for a thread, Fumble! I'm doing the exact same thing with my harvest trimming. Was going to make hot fudge sauce using this recipe.

But then I was experimenting and made a Nutella Peanut Butter spread for firecrackers that was easy, powerful, and tastes great.

Nutella/Peanut Butter Spread

1. Melt about 1/4 c. unsalted cannabutter in the microwave. (I used Aunt Sandy's 10x recipe.)
2. Stir in 1/2 to 3/4 cup Nutella (I keep adding till I can't taste butter) and microwave a bit to melt. Mix and taste until it suits yours.
3. Add peanut butter to your taste. (I like Adams 100% natural.)

(Where I live, Costco has both Nutella and Adams peanut butter in big containers, much cheaper than a regular market.)

This can be spread on a graham cracker and sprinkled with ce-carbed cannabis to make a firecracker, but if it's strong butter, use caution! Bought "crystal" jelly jars (about $1 each) for packaging.

I'm also going to make a Caesar dressing with canna olive oil and will post my Caesar recipe if anyone is interested in doing something savory. That's going into "recycled" French re-closable beer bottles. Guess where the beer went. :-)

Sorry dirtsfr, at first read I thought Fumble had started this thread. Great idea.

Here you go! It makes nearly 2 cups, but easy to make a smaller batch to make sure it's to your taste. The secret is to drizzle the oil painfully slow! That takes it to "store bought" consistency. I know my friends will think this is a pretty cool gift, hope yours do, too!

Caesar Salad Dressing (amended from "What's Cooking Alaska", by Chef Al)

3 egg yolks
1 tablespoon anchovy paste
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (I use whole grain)
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
Juice of 1 lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (I use the Caesar "mix" from Cash & Carry! :-)
1 1/2 cups canna olive oil
salt and freshly ground pepper

I use the food processor for this, so first I process then garlic, then add everything but the olive oil and cheese. I SLOWLY drizzle about half the olive oil in to emulsify it, then add the cheese, then the rest of the olive oil. This keeps well for a week-10 days in the frig, and is just about the right amount for a package of Costco or C&C romaine hearts.

Enjoy!


mmmm...that sounds good. I will have to it.

I'm having great fun! Did have a couple times when I underestimated the strength of my trim, however. :-) Have made capsules of sativa and indica, butter from indica, but still haven't decided the "blend" for olive oil. Thinking 50/50 would be a good start? Any prior experience out there?

yea I use 2 oz to 1 lb and some times 4 oz to a pound of butter. I've never made anything from straight Indica but looking forwards to it.

In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add pudding mix, eggs and vanilla. Combine flour and baking soda; add to creamed mixture and mix well. Fold in chocolate chips.
