HOW MUCH CANNABIS OIL SHOULD YOU USE?
In my recipe, I only used 1 tsp of cannabis oil, specifically CBD oil because this particular oil I had was rather herby and potent. 1 tsp of the CBD oil that I used equates to 10mg of CBD, which is an appropriate dosage for me if I’m just making a dessert. It’s important to know what your personal dosage is, and never rely on someone to tell you what your own dose should be. The rule of thumb is always to start low, and go slow. Start off with a few mg of CBD or THC, hang out for an hour or two, and see how you feel. There’s many factors that can affect how much dosage is required in order to trigger the psychoactive or desired effects (ie. mood, stomach fullness, sleep, etc.) so don’t be alarmed if you’re using a dosage that worked yesterday, but not today.
I would recommend making this recipe as a low-dose recipe simply because I find that almond flour and cannabis oil together tend to bring out more of the herby cannabis taste - which you might not be a huge fan of. The vanilla extract and maple syrup does help balance out the taste, but you don’t want to be using too much or else it’ll make your cookie dough too liquid.

INGREDIENTS (+SUBSTITUTIONS)
As always, I like to offer substitutions because it’s always important to provide people with the options! I myself am sensitive to a variety of foods and have certain food preferences, so that’s why it’s always important for me to offer selection to my readers.
Maple Syrup: Substitute the maple syrup with monkfruit sweetener or sugar-free maple syrup that’s made from monkfruit / erythritol. You can also use other liquid sweeteners like honey but I prefer the maple syrup taste for this particular dessert.
Almond Flour: Substitute the almond flour for oat flour if you have a nut allergy.
Vanilla Extract: I recommend using natural vanilla extract but it can be on the more expensive side. If you only have artificial, that works too. This ingredient is important because it helps mask some of the cannabis herby taste.
Cannabis Infused Olive Oil: Feel free to substitute MCT oil or coconut oil.
Dairy Free Milk: Almond and oat milk are always my go-to dairy free options. Some other milks that you can use instead are: coconut milk, rice milk, cows milk, chickpea milk, or soy milk.
Stevia Sweetened Chocolate Chips: I like to use stevia sweetened ones just because regular chocolate chips use alot of processed sugars that can spike your bloog sugar. Stevia has 0g of sugar and is a great option for anyone watching their weight or who may have diabetes.
TIPS & TRICKS FOR SUCCESS
Add a little bit of dairy free milk at a time. This ingredient is going to be very helpful in getting the right consistency and thickness of the cookie dough. Different almond and coconut flours will have different absorption rates of the dairy free milk, so you might have to use more or less than what the recipe calls for.
Chill the cookie dough before serving for the best texture (imo!) It really resembles a cookie dough flavoured ice cream.
