There’s something magical about a fresh-baked sugar cookie—warm, soft, buttery, and perfect for the holidays or a cozy night in. But if you want to take things to the next level, infused sugar cookies are where it’s at. The good news? You don’t need fancy equipment or complicated steps. With pre-milled cannabis products (which we carry at Orleans Joint!), making edibles at home has never been easier, more consistent, or more beginner-friendly.

Below, we’ll walk you through the infused butter method, the cookie recipe, and how to dose responsibly. Let’s bake!

🌿 Why Use Milled Cannabis?

Milled flower is already ground to the perfect consistency, saving you time and making your infusion process smoother. It also distributes evenly into butter or oil, meaning your cookies bake with consistent potency throughout the batch.

🍪 Easy Cannabis-Infused Sugar Cookies

Step 1 — Make Your Infused Butter

You’ll need:

½ cup unsalted butter
~0.5g–1g milled flower (adjust based on potency & preference)
Small saucepan
Cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer
Glass jar for storage

How to make it:

Melt butter on low heat—don’t let it simmer or burn.
Add your milled cannabis directly into the butter.
Keep on low heat for 30–45 minutes, stirring occasionally. (Aim for a gentle, low infusion—not frying.)
Remove from heat and strain through cheesecloth into a glass jar.
Let cool until solid.

This infused butter will become the base of your cookie recipe.

Step 2 — Make the Cookies

Ingredients:

½ cup cannabis-infused butter (sub with regular butter if you prefer lighter potency)
½ cup regular butter (optional: use all infused butter for stronger cookies)
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1½ tsp vanilla extract
2¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla.
In another bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Slowly combine dry ingredients into the wet mixture.
Roll dough into small balls and place on a baking sheet.
Bake for 8–10 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
Cool and enjoy responsibly!

🔢 Dosing Tips (Very Important)

Homemade edibles vary in strength, but here’s a simple way to estimate potency:

If your milled flower is 20% THC, then 1 gram contains roughly 200mg THC.
If you use 1g for the entire batch and make 20 cookies, each cookie is approx. 10mg THC.

Always start low and go slow—especially with homemade recipes.
