I wanted to make a quick, easy, delicious cannbis treat that has minimum cannabis flavor, and maximum cannabis effect.

I decided to adapt an old culinary classic- chocolate ganache.

Ganache [gahn-AHSH] is a French word for a mixture of chocolate and heavy cream, used as an icing or filling for pastries, filled chocolates, chocolate truffles, and other desserts. Its origins date to around 1850, possibly invented in Switzerland or in France.

Not wanting it to taste like a bale o hay, I decided to use hash in this one.
in this case, some tasty C99 dry sift hash.

Ganache + hashish = GANACHISH!

Here's what you'll need:
(Clockwise, starting from upper left)



2 tsp. butter
1 oz. heavy cream
1 splash of liqueur (optional)
.25(quarter) cup of semi sweet chocolate chips
and last but not least...
1 gram high quality hash- dry sift or unpressed bubblehash

First, melt your butter in a small pan over low heat.
Next, add your hash.



Mix with a metal tablespoon to combine well.
Allow hash/butter mix to warm for a minute.
In go the liquids. Since I'm using liqueur, that goes first. In this case... in honor of our own Crazy Composer, I'm using mozart chocolate liqueur, made in Salzburg. The liqueur will not only add more flavor, but since THC is souble in fat and alcohol, it helps in that regard as well.
Mix liqueur and hash mixture well. Now in goes the cream, and stir stir stir.


Turn up the heat a little, and get the cream good and hot without boiling it. Remove from heat, and stir in chocolate chips. It won't look like it's going to combine, but keep stirring. once all the chocolate has melted, and the mixture is smoothe- IT'S DONE!

At this point... much like the regular ganache, it can be used many ways. While it's warm, it pours smoothely, and can be used to top cannabrownies
I like to pour it onto some lightly greased foil, and cool it in the fridge until it's set to a soft, chewy consistancy.



After that, it can be cut into pieces and eaten, or rolled into balls and coated with cocoa powder like truffles.

I hope you all give it a try, and enjoy it thoroughly.

I haven't even read the recipe yet and I want to try it!

I had some wonderful hash chocolate at the Wonders festival (thank you, you know who you are) and have been trying to figure out the recipe ever since.

Sweet Cooked, what kind of chocolate did you use? There's a spice store in my area that sells all kinds of quality chocolate. I'm always trying something new.

[cooked cook]

I'd imagine one could use just about any type of chocolate, based on their own tastes. I personally used good ol Nestle Semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Peace

Just wanted to show off some of the Ganachish I just made. Hope ya dont mind cooked cook.

Used the same recipe/same volume but used some creme of cacoa for my liqueur. I havent tried the cooled off chocolate yet but I ate about 3 tsps worth that was left in the saucepan. This stuff tastes great... theres only a slight marijuana taste. And its very easy to make and consume.

I'm glad I was able to finally write an understandable recipe , and glad you gave it a try and enjoyed it.
Don't worry, be hashy!

Nice recipe Cooked, hey tell me something. You being the chef you are might know the answer to this, got any Ideas on where I can find Pelugra Butter (higher dairy fat content then typical butter)?

[cooked cook]

Thanks HK. Yep, I'd bet that any of the gourmet markets that are popping up will carry that butter you're looking for. i'll PM you some market names.
