Medical marijuana brownies or "weed brownies" are a great alternative to smoking weed. Although weed is illegal for recreational use in many countries, it has been adopted as a medicine to alleviate the symptoms of many illnesses.

There are two parts to making marijuana brownies: the first part is the making of the butter, and the second part the making of the brownies. Making marijuana brownies is a fairly easy process and not much cooking knowledge is required, so grab your apron and get baking!
Ingredients
Steps
Making the Butter
-
1Fill the large pot with water and boil. Then place the glass bowl over it so it sits over the pan. Do not let the glass bowl sit in the water as the temperature will be too high. Once the water is boiling, change heat to medium-low and place butter into the bowl.
-
2Add 1 cup of water, and 10 grams of marijuana into the bowl once the butter is melted. Continue to stir for at least an hour. Note: make sure the marijuana has been lightly ground.Advertisement
-
3Place the cheesecloth over the aluminum pan and pour the butter mix into the pan.[1] This should filter all the leftover marijuana out. Make sure to get as much of the liquid out of the cheesecloth to gain more yield. Once all the liquid is extracted, freeze for 40 minutes.
-
4Remove the pan from the freezer after 40 minutes and poke a hole on the bottom of the pan. this should remove any excess water from the butter. Once the water is removed, the butter is complete and ready to be added to the brownie mixture.

About This Article
To make marijuana brownies, you’ll need 1 stick of butter, 10 grams of ground marijuana, 1 cup of flour, ¾ cup of cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon of baking powder, 1/8 teaspoon of salt, 2 cups sugar, and 4 eggs. First, boil water in a pan and melt the butter in a bowl on top. Once the butter has melted, add 1 cup of water and 10 grams of ground marijuana to the bowl. Keep stirring it for 1 hour to help the marijuana infuse. Then, pour the mixture through a cheesecloth into another bowl and put it in the freezer for 40 minutes. While your butter is chilling, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. After 40 minutes, mix the butter with the sugar and eggs. Then, whisk all the ingredients together. Pour it into a cake tin and cook it in the oven for 30 minutes.
