The secret is to use as much butter as you can. This is key if the recipe calls for butter. **Always decarb weed before using it in edibles.

Light Magic Brownie Recipe
This recipe uses cake mix instead of brownie mix, which makes it a little lighter. Perfect for those who don’t want “fudge-like” brownies but still want something simple to make! I personally prefer a lighter brownie to a fudge-like brownie, and I’ve been happy with this pot brownie recipe for that purpose!
Ingredients
- 1 pkg. Devil’s Food cake mix
- 1 cup weed butter (8 oz, or 2 sticks worth)
- 3/4 cup Evaporated Milk
- (optional) 1/2 cup chopped nuts and/or chocolate chips
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Melt cannabutter in a large mixing bowl.
- Add cake mix, evaporated milk, nuts/chocolate (optional), and combine it into a thick batter.
- Spread batter into an ungreased 13″ x 9″ baking pan. It will be pretty thin but should fill the whole pan. Bake for 10-15 minutes until edges start pulling away from the sides and the center is set.
- Cool in a pan on a wire rack and cut into 15 squares


Dosing Info
If you’re unsure of your tolerance to cannabis edibles, only eat 1/2 or 1/4 of a brownie until you’ve better tested your tolerance.
It can take 2-3 hours for a brownie (or any cannabis edible) to set in, especially on a full stomach, so eating more edibles in that period is not recommended. You can always eat more edibles but can’t take them back!
Note: The best weed brownies start with high-quality cannabutter! If your cannabutter isn’t great to start, your brownies won’t be as good as they could be. Learn how to make the best weed butter, so you know the exact potency you’re working with!

Yes, you can smell weed brownies. However, when prepared correctly, you should not be able to smell weed brownies after they have been baked. Yes, drug-sniffing dogs and those with highly sensitive senses of smell will still be able to pick up on an ‘odd’ odor.
What are weed brownies called, or other names to call them?
Infused brownies are also referred to as pot brownies, special brownies, space cakes, fun brownies, hash brownies, and magic bites delight, and there are sure to be tens of other names for pot brownies, but those are the most common names. Making weed brownies is not only fun but they should be delicious too! 🙂
