The lushest salted macadamia and white chocolate cannabutter cookies

Are you looking for a lock-down cooking project with a little extra sumthin’ sumthin’?

These delicious canna cookies certainly hit the spot, although we’d recommend baking a second batch without any cannabutter so you don’t have to stop at one.

We recently created our own cannabutter using the MagicalButter Machine and the end product was amazing. You can check out the full article and recipe here.

Now, the thing with making your own cannabutter is you need to be careful with the dosage. Starting with a small amount to test the strength is the best way to go about this.

Do as I say and not as I do. I added half a cup of butter into the original recipe for these cookies and they were a tad strong, so suffice to say I’ve lowered the amount for this recipe. You can even start out by adding less cannabutter than suggested to trial the strength.

But, if you’re an experienced canna cookie connoisseur, then by all means dose to your heart’s content.

Next time I bake these cookies, I’m going to experiment by adding in raspberries. I think the tart flavour of the berries will work really well with the white chocolate.
