Time for Christmas, Time to Make CBD Cookies!
14 December 2023Christmas is always a special time to create something unique, so why not bake some delicious CBD cookies this year? There’s nothing better than enjoying your own baked goods by the Christmas tree. And why not make some extra for your grandmother, neighbor, or close friend? In this blog, you’ll find a recipe for delightful Chocolate Peppermint cookies and learn about the benefits of CBD edibles.
Enjoying Christmas More with CBD Cookie Making
Do you ever take the time to bake something yourself in the kitchen? Often, we opt for the convenience of just opening a package. But that’s a pity. Making something yourself brings relaxation, enjoyment from the simple preparation of cookies or cakes, and then the scents in your living room. Especially during Christmas, it adds extra atmosphere to your home.
Moreover, with this recipe, you can make CBD cookies, so you can also take advantage of the benefits of CBD! And you could really use them during the busy Christmas period. CBD is a natural substance from the hemp plant. This cannabinoid works with your body to help you stay balanced.
CBD has relaxing properties. In times of stress, when you feel anxious or worry a lot, it helps you to stay calm. Even if you dread family visits, shopping, and busy children, CBD helps you feel good.
Additionally, CBD has pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. If you suffer from headaches, joint pain, or muscle pain, you can use CBD. CBD is safe for long-term use and is suitable for everyone over the age of 4. It is available in various forms, such as CBD oil and CBD tablets. But it can also be incorporated into edibles, like CBD cookies you can make yourself!
Recipe for CBD Christmas Cookies
Even if you’re not a kitchen wizard, making cookies yourself is manageable. Most recipes are not too complicated. Make sure you read the recipe well in advance and have everything you need. Then you can get started. And why do it alone? Invite your children, your best buddy, or your grandma to join you in the kitchen! You’ll enjoy making these CBD cookies even more.
These cookies contain CBD oil. It’s important to decide how much CBD you want in each cookie before you start baking. If one cookie contains a whole daily dose, remember that you shouldn’t eat more than one per day. If you want to eat more, halve the dose so you can eat two a day, for example.
Ingredients:
- 160 grams flour
- 130 grams cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 135 grams brown sugar
- 120 grams margarine or butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1 egg
- 200 sweet chocolate chips
- 4 ground candy canes
- 24 doses of CBD oil (or as calculated)
- Optional: icing
Grind the candy canes, but not too finely. If they’re powdered, they’ll melt in the cookies, making the texture less soft and sticky. Grind them into small chunks with a mortar and pestle. Or put the candy canes in a bag and press them with a cup or spoon to break them.
How to Make CBD Christmas Cookies
When making these CBD cookies, prepare everything you need. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees. Mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Set it aside. Mix the butter and sugar in another bowl until you have a creamy mass, usually taking about 2 minutes.
Add the egg, vanilla and peppermint extract, and CBD oil and mix well. Now, slowly add the flour mixture to the butter and egg mixture while mixing. Make a nice batter. Then stir the chocolate chips into the batter. If the batter seems too liquid, add more flour.
Use a spoon to take a scoop of batter and form it into a ball. Flatten it slightly on the baking paper into the shape of a cookie. Do this with the rest of the batter, enough for 24 cookies. Sprinkle the candy cane chunks over each cookie and gently press them into the cookies. Bake for 8 minutes.
You might be tempted to bake them longer, but 8 minutes is just enough for soft, gooey cookies that are still a bit soft inside. Let the cookies cool and optionally drizzle with icing.
