Ingredients

Chai Spice

  • 2 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp ground allspice

The Cupcakes

  • 1 bag chai tea
  • 1/2 cup whole milk room temp
  • 1 3/4 cup cake flour
  • 3 tsp Chai mix (from above)
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt Himalayan if possible
  • 1/2 cup cannabis butter room temp
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large egg whites room temp
  • 3 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream room temp

Chai Spice Canna-Buttercream

  • 1 1/2 cups cannabis butter room temp
  • 5 cups confectioners sugar
  • 2 tsp chai mix
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 pinch salt Himalayan if possible

Instructions

  • Make your chai spice mix: Mix all of the chai spices together in a small bowl, and set aside.
  • Steep the tea. Bring milk to a boil on the stove. Pour over tea bag (just use a mug) and steep for 30 minutes. This chai milk is the milk you’ll use in the cupcake batter.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners. Line a second pan with 2-3 liners.
  • Make the cupcakes: Whisk the cake flour, chai spice mix, the baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Set aside.
  • Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the cannabis butter and sugar together on high speed until smooth and creamed, about 2 minutes.
    Beat in the egg whites on high speed until combined, about 2 minutes.
    Beat in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
    On low, slowly pour and mix in the chai milk until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Pour the batter into the liners 2/3 full. 
    Bake for 20-22 minutes.
    Let them cool completeleybefore frosting them.

Frosting

  • With a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cannabis butter on medium speed until creamy, about 2 minutes.
    Add confectioners’ sugar, the heavy cream, chai spice mix, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt with the mixer running on low.
  • Frost cooled cupcakes and serve. You can use a sprinkling of the leftover chai mix, if any, and a pinch of sugar on top of each cupcake!
