There really isn’t anything better over the holidays than a freshly-baked dip to snack on, and today’s recipe is no exception. We’re making Cannabis-Infused Warm Bacon Cream Cheese Dip!
This dip has been made in my home (sans cannabis) for years.
It’s creamy, warm, full of bacon and tasty melted cheese that will melt your heart too!
The comfort of a warm dip over the holidays brings a smile to anyone’s face, and now I’m adding cannabutter, so you’ll enjoy more than just a smile!
This is best served with a smorgasbord of crackers, pitas, chips, pretzels and artisanal breads.
Using Canabutter in Edible Recipes
Let’s just make a pact here; please make copious amounts of cannabutter so that the holidays are merry and bright!
Making a large batch will ensure that you have enough to make planned edible recipes and also spontaneous snacks too!
How Do I Make Cannabutter?
No worries – we have the step by step recipe below – it’s super easy, and as always we encourage you to decarb your weed first.
With edibles, I always remind readers of what I like to call “The Marijuana Mantra” which is to dose low, and slow.
Edibles take at least an hour or more to ‘kick in’. Be careful, no driving, stay inside and enjoy!
A recipe on how to make cannabis butter at home. After many cannabutter recipes, we find that this is by far the best way to infuse weed with butter.
Decarboxylate your weed by spreading your cannabis evenly on an oven tray And coat with aluminum foil.
Place in the oven on 240F/115C for 25 till 45 minutes, and then let it cool.
Grind your dry cannabis or chop it till fine.
Place the cannabis in a strong mason jar, add butter and (1 tsp of sunflower lecithin)(optional)
Place your closed jar in cold water and let it come to a boil, Boil for 2 to 3 hours.
Strain your butter through a cheesecloth.
Cool down
Now you can use the Cannabis Butter (Cannabutter)

Notes
If using a mason jar, be sure to start with cold water. Furthermore, it is imperative to let the water cool gradually so that your glass will not shatter.The video guide might be slightly different than the blog recipe. The blog recipe is the most updated and accurate.
