These marijuana gingerbread cupcakes are easy to make ahead of time, well before the madness of the holiday rush sets in. Keep them in the freezer and simply thaw and enjoy anytime you need a treat or a thoughtful homemade gift for that special stoner in your life.
I use Marijuana Butter to medicate this recipe. Check out my Making Marijuana Butter tutorial for directions on how to make it.
Freezer Friendly Marijuana Cupcakes!
Freeze cupcakes on a baking sheet until firm. Individually wrap each in plastic wrap and return to freezer. Thaw for 20 minutes and enjoy!
A note about the Dosage for Marijuana Gingerbread Cupcakes
This recipe will have about 20 mg THC per serving IF you made your marijuana butter from average cannabis (10% THC) and used 1/2 ounce of marijuana to make 1 cup butter.
To adjust the dosage up or down to meet your personal needs and to reflect the potency of the marijuana you are cooking with and the amounts you used to make your oil, be sure to take my FREE 10 minute online Dosing Class that will teach you how to do it, or use my handy dosage calculator tools that do all the math for you (see below).
