This hard candy is so easy to make that it is basically impossible to go wrong. You will need a small saucepan, a candy thermometer, and candy molds. This recipe yields about 20 individual hard candies.
Follow these simple steps to make hard candy with cannabutter:
In the saucepan over low heat, combine ¼ cup of cannabutter, sugar, and corn syrup until the sugar is fully absorbed into the mixture.
Use the remaining tablespoon of cannabutter to grease the candy molds.
Heat the mixture until it boils. Once the temperature reaches about 275 degrees Fahrenheit, add the gelatin mix and constantly stir until the mixture is smooth.
Remove the mixture from heat and spoon it into the individual candy molds.
Allow the mixture to cool. Do not place it in the refrigerator.
Once the candy has cooled and hardened, you can remove the individual pieces from the molds and dust them with powdered sugar to prevent stickiness.
Remember: it takes time to feel the effects of edibles. You may not feel the effects immediately, so don’t go back for more until an hour or two has passed.
