Well It worked, I felt the effects like 2 hours after I ate them. I just thought it would be better. If I was to put in a half oz would that make a big difference??

 

Mr. Niceguy

i followed your recipe almost exactly and it worked great. I put 1/2 of some mids and bended it in the blender(which didnt work too well, stuck to the sides). It made about 1/4 cup in the measuring cup and the i put it on the butter in on the stove. kept it moving for three minutes but it got too hot and some butter burnt off so i did this step again to get more butter and just to make sure i wasnt wasting any. Then i did everything the recipe on the box and it came out fine. We didn't any square pans so we just used a round one and guessed and checked at the time. But i got to tell you, it didnt smell too much and by the next day the smell was gone. They worked very well and were well worth the effort for the taste alone.

Glad you enjoyed them!

Try the margarine next time as it won't burn as easily as the butter... and no butter solids (butter fat) to burn at low temps...brownies stay fresh and chewy longer too!

And don't forget to try the TWIG TEA recipe ... its lovely!

Just whipped up a batch of brownies and I followed mamabudz recipe to the dot! And what's more -- I took pictures.

However, before I start patting myself on the back, I made some modifications.

1. I didn't have margarine or the motivation to go out and get some, so I risked rancidity, terribly tough poos and death by lightning by using the dreaded animal fat lubricating stick known as COMMON HOUSEHOLD BUTTER.

2. Not having a coffee grinder either, I decided to break it up by hand. It was an oddly pacifying thing to do, like playing in a sandbox, so I took my time and did a clean job. After I was finished it was almost completely a fine powder.

3. I used cheap weed. If my grandfather was Indian, he'd say, "If we killed a buffalo then we ate the whole buffalo. Tail and all." So, I didn't strain the whole chunks out of the butter after sauteing it. I wanted that extra .001% THC. And if that extra .001% wasn't enough reason, I rationalized that I'll need the extra fiber to help me pass the "terribly tough poos" I'll get from cooking with butter instead of margarine.

4. Not really a deviation, this one is more of a question really. I used double-chocolate brownie mix which I reason is really "double-chocolate" because it's chocolate brownie mix + chocolate chips. However, I bought extra chocolate from Ghiradelli that were also labeled "double-chocolate". So does that mean that this is four-times-chocolate brownies? Or is it just three-times chocolate brownies because the chocolate chips from the mix and the ones I bought taste and are shaped exactly the same?! Of course, I added about three times more chocolate chips than were in the mix originally, so does that make it 5x chocolate-brownie mix or 8x chocolate-brownie mix? Oh ****. Forget it.

5. After reading the horror stories on here I decided to take it easy and use half the recommended amount of green little friends. Alltogether, I think I used about an eigth of hard-packed mexican snuck-across-the-border weed. It was hard to tell exactly how much I used. I bought an ounce two months ago. I smoke three times a week. How much is left? Who knows.

6. The brownies didn't smell at all like pot while cooking. There was a little odor during the budz & butter saute, but that quickly faded and never really left the kitchen anyway. During the actual baking process, I didn't smell anything. But then again, I made a second batch of non-green brownies for my girlfriend at the same time (the ones with the almonds on top in the pictures). so there were an awful lot of brownies baking in the oven.

6b. I freeze my pot too because I buy in quantity to save money. So it's not like my weed had a lot of odor to begin with. It was frozen. That may have affected the odor a bit.

7. That reminds me, while sauteing, it never let up little wisps of smoke like mamabudz said in her recipe. I was afraid of it boiling for too long on low-low flame, so I finally gave up after five minutes. I didn't want to burn the bud or make the butter go rancid.

7b. I got a little high from breathing in the butter/bud vapor!

8. Why am I still counting?

9. Three cheers for mamabudz and her awesome recipe (which I mangled completely!)

Now, I ate my first brownie 45 minutes ago. I'm starting to feel a bit of a body high. Thanks everyone!

and the verdict???

(btw, the butter is not that it goes rancid, margarine just works better for most folks especially if they aren't experienced bakers)...

and that would be 5 to the power of 8 factorial on the chocolate, but whose counting...MORE CHOCOLATE =

Mellow high, but now I know doseage. It's really about what I expected.

1/2 brownie = mild high.
1 brownie should equal a full (average) high.
2 brownies should equal a mind scrubbing high.

But ignoring the THC content for a moment, the brownies taste wonderful. Funny, the ones I made according to the regular recipe (with the vegetable oil) don't taste as good as the pot ones with THC butter!

i read mamabudz brownie recipe, w/ the margerine...
i have a question
how much does the bud change the taste of the brownies
i'm thinkin of makin these for a party... of course limiting everyone's intake
but will they taste bad?

Hey, is the high of brownies or any consumed weed form different from a smoked form of weed? Does it last longer, take more, etc?

Eating bud is a lot more intense, you should experiment with around a gram at first then move up if you want to. Wait an hour-an hour and a half to feel it, and I recommend eating on an empty stomach.

Smoking bud never trips me out as much as eating it.

I personally can't stand the taste of bud in anything, but hey, the high is worth it

Mattinwc79

Ya, will eating one gram of bud in a brownie get you as high as, say smoking a gram in a bong?
