I'm about to make some butter/cookies/brownies and wanted to clarify a few things. My friend gave me a large amount of his 'shake' that he had saved from a harvest about two years ago. He said that it would still be fine but best for cooking (it's mostly turned a light shade of brown). He was a Botany major in college and we have talked much about growing so I assume he knows his stuff and even though the pot is old it'll be fine, I probably have about 3-4 cups worth of this stuff. Now I plan to use a generic Tollhouse recipe on the back of the Chocolate Chip bag. I figure I'll put as much of the shake into the butter as I can and let it simmer for half of an hour or so. Then I'll strain out the butter and proceed as directed. Everything sound in place? I want to make the cookies as potent as possible, the less I have to eat, the better, also means the more I can share with friends. Are there any ways to make the cookies more potent other than adding as much shake as possible? Anything wrong with how I am going to go about making these cookies? Suggestions? Thanks much. Peace, Trev. [edit]: I believe the recipe calls for one cup of butter, on a general basis how much pot do you use per cup of butter for potent cookies? (I don't have a scale so no weight measurements please).

![]() | That sounds like a good plan. To maximize potency, saute all the pot in the butter, but only use 1/2 a stick at a time. Then strain, then use a nother 1/2 stick, strain, etc. until you have your one cup of butter. It will take a bit more than 1 c butter to come away with 1 c cannabutter

![]() | Thanks pyrogenesis! I actually already made them. Here's what I did...(for anyone who cares). I filled the blender with shake and then blended it into a powder almost then poured it into a container off to the side. I repeated this process one and a half more times. (If it gives you any idea of how much I had it was two and a half blender fulls before being blended). I then melted one cup of butter and added about a cup of the shake, as I added more pot it slowly became a thick paste almost so I added another cup of butter. I added almost all of the pot (over two cups) and simmered and stirred for over half of an hour. I used a small hand strainer/screen and strained out all of the butter. At one point I had to use a spoon to squeeze the plant matter against the screen to get all of the butter possible. After one cup I poured it into the cookie mix and then continued. I got about one quarter cup after that and put it in the fridge. Mixed cookies and put the batter in the fridge. The batter did have a slight green tint to it but not as green as the cannibutter. After baking the cookies they lost most of the green tint and look and smell like normal cookies. Plus, the taste really good too. I went to see a movie with some friends and before we left we ate two cookies each. About half way through the movie I was definitely stoned, quite different from a smoking stone but stoned. When I got home I looked in the mirror and my eyes were beet red. Oh, I ate a third cookie when I started to feel high and that kept me going long after I fell asleep. Overall, cookies were a huge success I would do it again and again, as I will with any shake I get from my next grow. Thanks to anyone who has a cannibutter or cookie making thread out there. Take it easy. Peace, Trev.

![]() ![]() | Well, if we're going to hijack this thread into a cartoon planet/space ghost coast to coast/brak show quote list, then let me add my favourites: "Space Ghost, do you suffer from
"Why do we always hurt the ones we love? Why Banjo? Why? Banjo! Banjo! Banjoooooo!!!" ![]() He he. Played headkicker 2 on adultswim.com? Try and get to the end, it's awesome ![]() Back on topic, what did they taste like? I once made a batch of brownies but couldn't eat more than a bite before feeling like wretching as they tasted like raw weed just happens to taste. The smell I love, but the taste of eating it raw I can't stand. Is it possible to mask the taste, or am I doomed to never be able to enjoy cannabutter?
