Your friends will love these medicated peanut butter cookies topped with a delicious chocolate kiss.

Yields 20-24 cookies

Here’s What You Need:

  • 1 cup cannabis-infused butter (room-temperature)
  • ½ cup sugar (optional: an additional 1/3 cup for dusting)
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar
  • ¾ cup peanut butter
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon organic pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 package chocolate kisses (any kind will do, just unwrap them prior to using)
  • Cookie sheet

How to Make Peanut Butter Cannabis-Kiss Cookies

To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a medium size bowl, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then mix the dry goods with a fork.

Next, in a large bowl, combine the room-temperature cannabis-infused butter, peanut butter, sugar and light brown sugar.

Using a standing, or hand-held electric mixer, cream the cannabutter, peanut butter, and both sugars together on low-speed, until it’s whipped and smooth.

Beat in the egg, 2 tablespoons of milk, and organic pure vanilla extract. Mix the ingredients well until fully combined.

Add in batches of the dry goods to the large bowl containing the wet ingredients and mix well after each addition. Repeat until the peanut butter cookie batter is complete.

Take about 1 heaping tablespoon of cookie dough batter, and roll 1″ balls using your hands.

If you wish to roll your cookies in sugar, now is the time.

Place the dusted cookie dough balls onto an ungreased cookie sheet, making sure to leave at least 2 inches in between each cookie.

Place the cookie sheet into the oven and bake your cookies for 10-12 minutes.

After this amount of time has passed, remove the cookie sheet from the oven and immediately press an unwrapped chocolate kiss onto each peanut butter cookie. You need to press the chocolate kisses onto the cookies while they are still warm, and malleable – otherwise, you risk the kisses not adhering properly to the cookies.

After topping each cookie with a kiss, use a spatula and transfer the peanut butter cookies to a wire cooling rack. Allow the cookies to cool for several minutes before serving.

Serve the peanut butter cannabis-kiss cookies with a tall glass of hemp milk, and enjoy!
