👩🏻🍳 BEFORE YOU GET STARTED
If you’re new to cooking with cannabis, you’ll want to learn more about getting started. It’s not hard to cook with cannabis, but there are a few things you’ll need to understand first. For this recipe, you’ll need to know:
📋 INGREDIENTS
- Cake mix (your choice of flavor)
- Frosting (your choice of flavor)
- Mason jar
- Sprinkles
- CannaButter or CannaOil
See recipe card for quantities.
📋 INGREDIENTS
- Cake mix (your choice of flavor)
- Frosting (your choice of flavor)
- Mason jar
- Sprinkles
- CannaButter or CannaOil
See recipe card for quantities.
🔪 INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare the cake mix according to package instructions.
- Bake on a greased half sheet pan. Cake will be thin.
- Let cool completely.
- Using a round cookie cutter, cut out cake rounds that are slightly smaller than the mason jar opening. You will need 3-4 cake rounds per mason jar.
- Place one cake round in the bottom of the mason jar.
- Add one teaspoon melted CannaButter or Canna Oil. Each teaspoon of CannaButter or Canna Oil adds 28 mg of THC, so you may only want to do one teaspoon of your infusion per mason jar, but you can add more if you want.
- Top with frosting and sprinkles.
- Repeat until mason jar is full.
- Place a lid on your jar. Store in the refrigerator and eat within 7 days or in the freezer within 6 months.
HINT: Use a cookie cutter that's about 2.5 inches in diameter to fit inside your mason jar.
💭 TOP TIPS
- Serve warm with a dollop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- Like your crisp to be extra sweet? Double the toppings ingredients for extra crumble. (Just be sure to take the extra CannaButter into your dosing consideration.)
The very best part about this entire recipe is how easy it is to customize it to meet your own needs and desires.

Instructions
- OPTIONAL: Place the oats and nuts on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes in a 350 degree oven (until lightly toasted). This will give your granola bars more of a cookie taste, but it is optional.

- When butter mixture is finished, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and salt. **If adding peanut butter, add ¼ cup peanut butter to this mixture.
- Pour mixture over the oats and nuts and stir to combine.
- Add mix-in ingredients (except for chocolate) and stir until all oats are covered.
- If adding chocolate, wait 10 minutes for mixture to cool down before adding.
- Place mixture in the prepared pan. Use the bottom of a greased measuring cup or spoon to press the mixture into the pan.
- Place the granola bars in the fridge for at least 2 hours. (Overnight is even better!)
- Lift the bars from the pan and place them on a cutting board. Cut into 16 equal pieces.
