Recipe Essentials

• Prep Time: 15 minutes

• Cook Time: 10 minutes

• Yields: 12 cups

• Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

• 1 cup Cocoa powder

• 1 cup Peanut butter

• 1 cup Cannaoil (cannabis oil)

• 1/4 tsp Salt

• 1/4 cup Honey

• 1/2 cup Confectioners’ sugar

Step-by-Step Directions

1. Prep: Trim 12 paper muffin cup liners to half their height to give your peanut butter cups that classic, compact look.

2. Chocolate Base: In a saucepan over low heat, whisk together the cocoa powder, cannaoil, honey, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined. Remove from heat.

3. Create the Shell: Spoon the melted chocolate into the bottom of the muffin cups, filling them halfway. Use the back of a spoon to draw the chocolate up the sides of the cups until evenly coated. Place in the refrigerator until firm.

4. Filling: In a small bowl, mix together the peanut butter, confectioners’ sugar, and the remaining salt.

5. Assemble: Evenly distribute the peanut butter mixture into the center of the cooled chocolate cups.

6. Seal: Reheat the remaining chocolate mixture if necessary, then spoon it over the peanut butter center. Spread the chocolate to the edges to completely seal the cup.

7. Set: Lightly cover the cups and allow them to set in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or in the freezer for 10 minutes for a faster result. Serve your edibles recipe chilled.

Pro-Tips for Success

• The Stoner Strategies Secret: If you want a "snap" to your chocolate, ensure the chocolate is properly cooled between layers. Patience here ensures your cannabis edibles look as good as they taste.

• Potency Balance: Using cannaoil in the chocolate shell provides a consistent experience. If you prefer a lighter effect, you can substitute a portion of the cannaoil with regular coconut oil.

• Customization: Feel free to sprinkle a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt on top of the final chocolate layer for a gourmet, bistro-style finish that elevates your cannabis edibles.
