Discover the ultimate Cannabutter Hard Candy Recipe - a simple, sweet treat infused with your favorite green magic. Perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 cup Light Corn Syrup
- 1/4 cup Water
- 1/4 cup Cannabutter
- 1 tsp Flavoring your choice
- A few drops Food Coloring optional
Instructions
Preparing the Candy Mixture
- Combine the Basics: In your heavy-bottomed saucepan, mix together the sugar, corn syrup, and water. The sugar should be completely dissolved after stirring over medium-low heat. This is the base of your Cannabutter Hard Candy Recipe, so make sure it’s smooth and lump-free.
- Heat it Up: Once the sugar has dissolved, insert the candy thermometer. Let the mixture boil without stirring until it reaches the hard-crack stage (300°F to 310°F). This is crucial for getting that perfect hard candy texture.
- Add the Magic: When the temperature hits the mark, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the cannabutter, flavoring, and food coloring (if using). Mix it well but quickly, as the mixture will start to set as it cools.
Shaping Your Candies
- Mold it: Carefully pour the mixture into candy molds or onto the prepared baking sheet. If you’re using a baking sheet, you can score the candy while it’s still warm to break it into pieces once it’s hardened.
- Cool Down: Allow the candies to cool completely. This might be the hardest part—waiting without sneaking a taste.
The Finale: Enjoy Your Creation
- Unmold and Serve: Once the candies have set, pop them out of the molds or break them into pieces along the scored lines. Voilà, your Cannabutter Hard Candy Recipe masterpiece is ready to be enjoyed!
