EDIBLES RECIPES FOR THE HOLIDAYS!

Dear Stoner: Know any good edibles ideas for Christmas? Something 
better than gingerbread men, please. Saint Bic

Dear Bic: What, you don't like biting the heads off delicious 
gingerbread folks? Your loss. Here are a few pot-infused recipes to 
help you get roasted by an open fire without too much effort.

Medicated Apple Butter

Ingredients:

1 1/2 tbsp brown sugar

1/2 apple

3/4 tbsp cinnamon

1 cup cannabis butter (softened)

Cut the apple in thin slices, then combine with brown sugar, cinnamon 
and butter. Dump everything into a food processor (blenders work, 
too) and blend until soft and thoroughly mixed. Put the result in the 
fridge for a few hours. Enjoy with a medicated muffin or regular 
scones and cranberry bread. Just be sure to label it - for Grandma's sake.

Pot-Infused Puppy Chow

Ingredients:

7 cups Chex or Crispix cereal

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 tbsp vanilla extract

1-1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/3 cup peanut butter

1/3 cup cannabis butter (softened)

2/3 cups red and green M&M's or crushed candy canes (optional)

In a large bowl, microwave chocolate chips until melted, then add 
peanut butter. Stir in vanilla extract and butter until cool. Pour 
over cereal in a separate bowl and mix, then transfer to a large 
Ziploc bag. Add powdered sugar and shake vigorously. Serve at holiday 
parties or divide up for stocking stuffers.

Weednog

Ingredients:

3 eggs

1-1/4 cups whole milk

1-1/2 tbsp butter

2 cups heavy cream

1/3 cup sugar

2 tbsp vanilla extract

1/2 tbsp cloves

5 grams finely ground pot

1/2 cup brandy, rum or whiskey (optional)

Mix butter, ground pot, milk, vanilla extract and choice of alcohol 
in a pan and heat on low for sixty minutes, stirring frequently. Add 
in the nutmeg and clove at the 45-minute mark. Strain the mixture and 
cool for thirty minutes at room temperature. Whisk together eggs, 
milk, cream, sugar and pot-infused mixture until thick. Then raise a 
glass to Colorado.
