How to Make Cannabis Chocolate Bar

Ingredients:

• High-quality chocolate dark, milk, or white (at least 60% cacao).
• Cannabis-infused cocoa butter or coconut oil.
• Lecithin (optional).
• Flavor enhancers (sea salt, nuts, caramel, fruit zest, or spices like cinnamon).
• Sweeteners (if using unsweetened chocolate).

Tools:

• Double boiler or microwave-safe bowl.
• Silicone molds.
• Whisk or spatula.
• Precision scale.
• Thermometer.

Instructions:

1. Melting & Tempering the Chocolate: Melt your chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in 15-second bursts, stirring in between. To get a glossy finish and crisp snap, temper it correctly.

2. Mixing in the Infused Fat: Once the chocolate reaches the desired temperature, slowly add your infused cocoa butter or coconut oil. Whisk gently until fully incorporated, ensuring even distribution of cannabinoids.

3. Pouring & Molding: Carefully pour the mixture into silicone molds using a spoon or piping bag. Tap the molds gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles. If desired, sprinkle toppings such as sea salt, crushed nuts, or fruit zest before the chocolate sets.

4. Chill out: Pop those molds in the fridge for half an hour to an hour, or even a bit longer, until the chocolate gets all solid. Once they’re good and firm, stash them in an airtight container somewhere cool and dark.

Tips For Better Cannabis Infused Chocolate

Little things can make a HUGE difference in how your cannabis chocolates turn out, how smooth they are, how strong they hit, and if you actually enjoy eating them. So, pay attention to these tips:

• Use the Good Stuff: The better the chocolate, the smoother and tastier your treats will be. Trust me on this.
  
  
• Measure it Out: Get yourself a scale and be precise with your measurements. This keeps things consistent and helps you get the right dose.
  
  
• Keep Stirring: Don’t let that chocolate sit still! Keep stirring it up to make sure the good stuff is evenly spread throughout.
  
  
• Low and Slow: Chocolate burns easy, so keep the heat down and go slow.
  
  
• Store Them Right: Keep your chocolates in an airtight container away from light and heat. This keeps them fresh and potent.
  
  
• Get Creative: Add some flavor! Extracts, spices, oils… get wild with it.
