GINGER / CINNAMON / CLOVES

Three spices. One sugar crust.

These are round cookies, shaped by hand rather than cut out. Keep two tablespoons of the white sugar aside for the coating; the remaining cup goes into the dough.

IN THE DOUGH

1 cup white sugar

Mix with the softened butters, egg, and five tablespoons of brown sugar before adding the dry ingredients.

ON THE OUTSIDE

2 tablespoons

Roll the one-inch dough balls in the reserved white sugar. Space the coated balls two inches apart on the sheets.

COOKING NOTES

A light hand with the dough.

Soften both butters
The dough uses softened cannabutter and regular butter. Let them become pliable before mixing; do not melt them for this recipe.
Keep the shapes even
Roll similar one-inch balls and keep the two-inch spacing. A crowded sheet or much larger balls changes how the cookies bake.
Let the tray cool between rounds
Use a cool sheet for the next batch. The recipe does not call for a chilling step; if the dough becomes difficult to handle, cooling it briefly is an optional handling aid, not a timed part of the method.

Count the cookies after baking.

The dough uses ½ cup cannabutter plus ¼ cup regular butter. Use only the infused half-cup in the THC estimator. No cookie count is specified; count the actual cookies. Cool fully before sealing in a labeled container, or freeze wrapped cookies for later.

Label these as cannabis edibles. Keep locked away from children and pets. Effects can take up to two hours to be felt; avoid taking more while waiting.
