We love how weed brownies put a playful twist on classic chocolate treats. Our version uses THC-infused butter that blends sweet flavors with a relaxing buzz. It’s a delicious way to bring the party vibe to a cozy night in
Weed Brownie Recipe THC Butter
We start by decarboxylating our finely ground cannabis. We preheat the oven to 240 F for 40 minutes then we spread the cannabis over a parchment-lined tray. We bake until it reaches a lightly toasted hue. This step unlocks THC and enhances potency for our brownies.
Ingredients for THC Butter
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.25 ounce finely ground decarboxylated cannabis
- 1 cup water (to regulate temperature)
We place butter and water in a saucepan and heat gently on low. We add cannabis and stir every 15 minutes. We continue this infusion for 2 hours. We strain through cheesecloth and do not press the plant matter. We chill the strained butter until it solidifies.
We use our freshly infused THC butter in our favorite brownie recipe by replacing standard butter with our infusion. We bake at 350 F for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center shows moist crumbs.
Below is a simple dosage guide:
| Cannabis Quantity (grams) | Approx Edible Potency (mg THC)* | Butter (cups) |
|---|---|---|
| 3.5 | ~280 | 1 |
| 7.0 | ~560 | 1 |
| 14.0 | ~1120 | 1 |

Make-Ahead And Storage Tips
We can prepare our THC butter in advance by decarboxylating cannabis and infusing unsalted butter earlier in the week. This approach lets us focus on baking when we are ready. We often portion the butter into small cubes or compartments so we can easily measure what we need later.
We also like to mix our dry ingredients ahead of time. We sift together flour cocoa powder sugar and salt. We keep this mixture in a sealed container in a cool place for up to three days. When we want to bake brownies we simply combine our stored dry mix with eggs vanilla extract and the pre-made THC-infused butter.
Once our weed brownies are baked and cooled we store them in an airtight container to keep them moist. We can keep them at room temperature for up to three days if we plan to enjoy them soon. If we want them to last longer we refrigerate them for up to one week. After that we recommend freezing them for extended storage because prolonged refrigeration can affect flavor and texture. We suggest labeling the container to ensure no confusion about the brownies’ potency.
Below is a quick reference for storage durations and methods:
| Storage Method | Lasts Up To | Recommended Container |
|---|---|---|
| Room Temperature (Brownies) | 3 days | Airtight container |
| Refrigerator (Brownies) | 1 week | Airtight container |
| Freezer (Brownies) | 1 month | Wrapped tightly or vacuum-sealed |
| Refrigerator (THC Butter) | 2 weeks | Sealed container |
| Freezer (THC Butter) | 6 months | Portion in cubes for easy measurement |
We find that mindful labeling prevents accidental overconsumption. We also suggest checking for any changes in color smell or texture before eating leftovers. This step ensures our Weed Brownie Recipe THC Butter remains safe and potent for our next sweet indulgence.

How do I know if leftover brownies are still good?
If stored properly, brownies should keep their quality for up to a week in the fridge or a month in the freezer. Check for odd smells, discoloration, or changes in texture before eating. When in doubt, it’s best to discard them rather than risk consuming spoiled or compromised treats.
