<p><a href="https://weedzly.com/library/the-different-types-of-edibles">Making weed chocolates</a> is a lot trickier than making pot brownies. In fact, so many people have their marijuana chocolate recipes that it almost seems like there are more variations than solid, tried-and-tested methods. But, there are a few parameters to follow if you want to make weed chocolates that do not result in a wasted trip to the emergency room.</p>

<h3 id="1">Here's what you'll need:</h3>
<ul>
<li>2-5 grams of crushed flower</li>
<li>2 bars of your favorite chocolate, chopped into 1 cm chunks</li>
<li>Candy molds or ice cube tray</li>
<li>Parchment paper or baking sheet</li>
<li>A saucepan</li>
<li>A glass bowl</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="2">Step 1:&nbsp; Decarboxylate your weed</h3>
<p>Decarbing your weed means heating it up before using it in cooking. It activates THC and CBD, allowing you to enjoy their numerous health benefits. To do this, spread your ground weed on a baking sheet or in an oven-safe dish and place it in an oven at 240F for 40 minutes. Make sure not to overheat it! Once your material begins to look toasted and feels slightly harder, you are ready to put it into the chocolate</p>
<h3 id="3">Step 2: Melt chocolate</h3>
<p>Melt 200g (7oz) of plain chocolate in a glass bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Similarly, you can melt in the microwave set for 30-second bursts on medium power.&nbsp; Switch on the heat until the chocolate melts into a thick, velvety liquid free from lumps. Swirl the hot chocolate mix from time to time.</p>
<h3 id="4">Step 3: Blend the marijuana into butter</h3>
<p>Add your cannabis to the chocolate slowly, stirring as you go. You should expect a greenish tint to the chocolate, but this does not change the final flavor. Adding more cannabis will give you a stronger, more potent cannabis bite.</p>
<h3 id="5">Step 4:&nbsp; Pour mixture into molds</h3>
<p>After your weed chocolate mixture has set for a few hours, it is time to remove the cannabis-laced chocolates. If you used the special molds, simply press firmly on the bottom of each mold and gently pull. The mold should pop right off, revealing beautiful weed chocolate bars. If you used an ice cube tray, you would need to cut your weed chocolates into individual squares using a sharp knife or kitchen shears.</p>

<h3 id="6">Step 5: Remove Air Bubbles</h3>
<p>Once you have removed chocolates from the molds, they may have a few air bubbles on the surface. These are easily removed by gently dropping each chocolate onto the kitchen counter a few times. It's best to do this over the sink in case the chocolate bounces out of your hand and onto the floor!</p>
<h3 id="7">Step 6: Place in fridge to set</h3>
<p>Place your mold in the fridge to solidify for 10&ndash;15 minutes. Some recipes may need to be refrigerated longer. You can also place them in a plastic sealable bag with the air squeezed out. Place the bags in a cool, dark place and let chill for about 1 hour.</p>
<h3 id="8">Step 7: Enjoy the final product!</h3>
<p>After your cannabis-infused chocolate has been set, please remove it from the fridge and enjoy. If you don't feel anything half an hour after eating weed chocolate, don't panic! <a href="https://weedzly.com/library/how-long-does-it-take-for-edibles-to-work">Edibles can take more than two hours to kick in.</a> So just relax and enjoy the ride!</p>
