Recipe Essentials

• Cook Time: 15 minutes

• Servings: 2

• Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

• 2 cups Milk (whole milk or a creamy plant-based alternative)

• 2 tbsp Hot cocoa powder

• 1/4 cup Sugar

• 2 tbsp Vanilla extract

• Dash of salt

• 2 tsp Cannabutter (cannabis butter)

• Whipped cream or marshmallows (optional, for topping)

Step-by-Step Directions

1. Warm the Base: In a small pot or saucepan, gently warm the milk over medium-low heat.

2. Combine: Stir in the hot cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Whisk continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

4. Emulsify: Pour the cocoa into your favorite mugs. Add 1 teaspoon of cannabutter to each mug and stir well until it has completely melted into the drink.

5. Serve: Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream or a handful of marshmallows. Serve this cozy edibles recipeimmediately while hot.

Pro-Tips for Success

• The Stoner Strategies Secret: To achieve a professional, café-style texture, use a small hand whisk or frother to blend the cannabutter into the cocoa. This ensures the fats are perfectly incorporated, which is crucial for the consistency of your cannabis edibles.

• Flavor Variations: Add a tiny dash of chili powder for a "Mexican-style" heat, or a drop of peppermint extract for a classic holiday flavor profile.

• Consistency: Because fats can separate, give your mug a quick stir every few sips to ensure your experience remains balanced throughout the entire cup.
