Cannabis Sugar Cookies: Simply Great
Cannabis sugar cookies can be made in any colour or flavour. These simple cookies taste great with or without added flavour.
Infused Cannabutter
Use margarine or butter that has been infused with cannabis for sugar cookies. Make sure your cannabutter or cannamargarine is room temperature before mixing the ingredients together.
Mixing The Dough
To make cannabis sugar cookies, start by creaming together cannabutter and sugar. Add egg, food colouring and vanilla and mix until creamy. In a separate bowl, mix dry ingredients together. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until well incorporated, being careful to not over mix.
Divide dough into 12 equal portions using an ice cream scoop. Rolls into balls and press tops in sugar. You can use regular white granulated sugar or coarse sanding sugar. Evenly space coated dough balls on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Gently press dough down to about 3/4″ thickness.
Bake Cannabis Infused Sugar Cookies
Bake sugar cookies, one tray at a time in preheated 375° F oven for 13 to 15 minutes. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then remove and place on cooling rack to cool completely.
Store in the fridge in a sealed container for up to one week or store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Attractive Edibles
Good looking food temps our eyes and entices us to taste it. There are many different ways of jazzing up your cookies so have fun, get creative and express yourself through food.
Some things you may need to dress up your cookies are:
Colour
Colour your sugar cookie dough by adding food colouring to the wet ingredients in the recipe. It is a good idea to stock your kitchen with several different colours.
Glistening Sugar
Rolling your sugar cookie dough in white sugar before baking creates a sparkly, eye catching appearance. Sanding sugar is more coarse and reflects even more light. This adds a dramatic visual effect as well as texture.
Make Edibles Taste Great
Don’t forget flavour. There are many exciting flavours you can add to sugar cookies. Use good quality flavours and concentrated oils. Some popular flavours include orange, mint, anise, butterscotch, grape and lemon. Ground spices can also be used including cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves.
Consume Responsibly
Always consume edibles responsibly and don’t consume too much at once. Use the Dosing Edibles Calculator to determine the amount of THC per serving in your sugar cookies. Store all edibles safely out of reach of children and pets.

Can I use cannabis infused coconut oil instead of cannabutter? Thank you!
Coconut oil should work but I have never tried it.
We did 1.5x the recipe and ended up with 30 cookies. We made our’s green. Added birthday cake bits (find in baking section at walmart) and it SLAPPED.
Do u get the effect with the cannabutter
Amazing outcome the cookies were a hit?
This recipe is so easy to make and dosing the right amount using the dosing calculator. Simply excellent!
These turned out great. I liked the idea of food coloring. My husband doesn’t use marijuana, but I do. I often bake, so I just told him that “any cookies that are dyed green are marijuana cookies.” Now he doesn’t have to worry about dosing himself accidentally. There is only two of us, so this system works.
Same here! If they are green they are “ Adult cookies”.
No children here either….all good.
Enjoy
