Welcome back my demonic babies to part 2 of spooky season stoner snacks. These are all the very best terrifying treats to spice up your Halloween party. If you want to know how to make your cannabutter, cannaoil, bat biscuits, or blood punch then go back and visit part 1. If you’re ready to go then let’s get this show on the road!
Creepy Cupcakes
The rules of spooky snacks are simple, alliteration. Unless I can’t think of any then just like a scary word is fine but…yeah mostly alliteration. Cupcakes are always a great party snack and they are so easy to make with your pre-done cannabutter. It’s totally up to you whether you put the butter into the buttercream frosting or into the cakes themselves.
For the cupcakes you’ll need:
- 200g butter (split between regular and cannabutter if you want to put the weed in the main cake)
- 200g melted dark chocolate
- 2 eggs
- 250g self-raising flour
- 300g caster sugar
- A pinch of baking powder
- 200ml milk
- 50g cocoa powder
To make just:
Preheat the oven to about 160 before you start making the batter.
Whisk the softened butter and the sugar together just like you did for the bat biscuits. Add the liquid chocolate and the eggs, keep beating till it’s a lovely smooth mixture. Once you have the base add the rest of your ingredients and whisk it all together till you have a lovely creamy but thick batter.
Grab a cupcake tin and line with cupcake cases. Then spoon a decent amount of batter into each one and level off, remember they will puff up some so don’t overfill. If you’re feeling really crazy you can mix food colouring into your batter, black works well with dark chocolate.
Pop them in the oven for about 20 minutes, just keep checking to see how they are looking. They should feel springy when you poke them. Don’t poke them too hard probably.
For the buttercream you’ll need:
- 500g icing sugar
- 300g butter (again if you want to put the weed in this part just make it half normal and half fun butter) ((I’m never saying fun butter again))
- 1tsp vanilla extract
- Whatever colour of food colouring you like
All you need to do is whisk the softened butter/butters until smooth then add in your icing sugar and your vanilla extract and whisk it all up till it’s deliciously creamy. Then you can always separate it if you want to do different colours for different designs.
It could be fun for you and your buddies to decorate your own creepy cupcakes so just grab lots of drawing icing and other bits to make scary designs.
Gory Guts Tearing Bread
I found this article sans cannabis and I just thought it was such a great and easy idea that is perfect for all you savoury lovers out there. This treat is essentially a very simple tearing bread surrounded by a red tomato dip and the idea is to make it look like an intestinal tract.
For the bread you’ll need:
- 500g bread flour
- 2 tbsp cannaoil
- A sachet of fast action yeast
- 300ml warm water
- Cheese
- Garlic butter
Put the flour in the bowl and make two large dents in the flour on either side, make sure they are separated. In one dip put the yeast, and in the other put 2 tsp of salt. Add in the warm water and start to mix into a dough with a wooden spoon. Do not pour in all the water at once just in case it makes the dough too wet then you get into a never-ending just adding a little bit of each till you have the most dough anyone has ever had. I would honestly say go under rather than over with water and add extra moisture by pouring in some of your oil. Once the dough is consistent take it out and get to kneading. You wanna knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it’s nice and springy then cover it in oil, smooth out the surface into a ball, and put in a bowl covered with a non fluffy and slightly damp tea towel. Leave this to prove for about two hours.
For the blood all you need is:
- 2 tins chopped tomatoes
- Oregano
- Garlic
- Onion
- Brown Sugar
I didn’t provide measurements because this is cooking not baking. How I would do it is chop up a red onion, maybe dice it, and put it on a low heat with more cannaoil to sweat. Crush and chop as much garlic as you like, I would go for 4 or 5 cloves. Add that to the sweating onions and then add the tins of chopped tomato, maybe a squeeze of tomato paste and the oregano. Simmer that and let it reduce until it is a yummy thick sauce.
Get a decent sized oven or roasting tin and spread the sauce over the bottom of it. Flour a surface and roll out your dough to a rectangle that’s about 30cm by 60cm. Cut that in half for two smaller rectangles. Now you can choose a filling, I would usually go for half mozzarella and half another cheese to give it some variety of flavour, gruyere melts well and goes with the sauce perfectly. Close the fillings in by pinching the sides together, be as gentle as you can. Once they are fully sealed you can stretch them ever so gently so you can lay them into the sauce in a wiggle intestine shape. Having smaller sections makes maneuvering easier but you’ll want them to come back together during cooking. Leave a little tiny space between them because the bread dough will expand.
Now you want to cover the tray with a non-fluffy tea towel and leave it to prove for 30 mins. Then put the oven on at 180 degrees C, let it preheat, then stick your guts in for about 45 mins. Once it’s golden brown you can brush your melted garlic butter over the bread and let it cool for 10 minutes.
There you have it! Delicious stoner snacks for the spooky season. Have an amazing Halloween!!!
