Notes
- Decarboxylation: Ensure your cannabis is decarboxylated before infusing it into the butter to activate the THC.
- Dosage: The potency of the cupcakes will depend on the strength of your cannabis-infused butter. Adjust the amount used according to your preference and tolerance.
- Storage: Store the cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
