Again as with my 'rustic' milk chocolate slab I cant claim to be 'cook of the year' but
I thought id go all out on prep of the Bud ( which had been cured and then decarboxylated by myself)
Again I was using the same combination of white widow, jack herer and amnesia haze for the mix.
Firstly I made the sacred butter, i didnt use water on this occassion, i just very slowly melted the unsalted butter in the same pan as I had decarbed the buds in.
I melted the butter down and pulled the temp of the hob back to low and then for the next few mins i made sure the temp was stable
I then added the ground herbs to the butter and mixed in with a wooden spatula for a good 30 mins (I ocassionally took breaks of a few mins to sip my coffee and placed a lid on the butter at these times)
after 30 mins or so had passed I took the pan off the heat and strained the butter through two strainers into a glass bowl
I then added some of the chocolate chips that came with brownie mix into the butter and mixed in well, I put the bowl over some very low temp hot water
and allowed the chips to fully melt into the butter.
while the chips were slowly melting away
I added eggs to the brownie mix and whisked vigourously!
I then added the butter and melted choco chips to the brownie mix added the remaining choco chips and then poured into my baking tray and placed the mix
in a preheated oven and allowed to cook for just under 30 mins.
I removed the cooked brownie from the oven , covered in tin foil and allowed to cool./
earlier today I split the large brownie into 12 pieces. but there are only 11 left now!
using the same calculation I used previous the rough maths is:
70g unsalted butter (i read that 25% evaporation can happen when melting butter so I ended with around 50g)
4g of cured decarbed buds
4g/50g = 0.08g bud per g of butter
the brownie was split into 12 pieces so in each brownie piece is 4.17g of butter
so 0.08g(bud) x 4.17g(butter)
so if these calcs are right each piece of brownie would have 0.33g of bud in.
It doesnt sound very strong but the buzz is very nice from one! I guess it very much depends on the quality of the buds as to effect, but I would be thinking I would
need to devour 3 of these... however I think for me 3 could well offer something pretty lengthy!
anyhow, heres a few pictures of sum of the offending canna and of course the Brownies :
