Easy THC-Infused Rice Krispies Treats Recipe
This THC rice krispies recipe is simple, quick, and lets you control the dosage by using THC distillate.
Ingredients:
– 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal – 1 package (10 oz) mini marshmallows – 3 tablespoons unsalted butter – Desired amount of THC distillate – Nonstick cooking spray or parchment paper
Instructions:
Prep Your Workspace:
Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or spray it lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
Melt the Butter:
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
Add Marshmallows:
Stir in the mini marshmallows. Continue to stir until completely melted and smooth.
Incorporate the THC Distillate:
Remove the saucepan from heat. Add the desired amount of THC distillate (refer to the distillate’s potency to determine dosage). Stir thoroughly to ensure even distribution. Example: If your distillate is 90% THC and you want 10 mg THC per serving, use 0.05 grams (50 mg) for a batch of 10 squares.
Add Rice Krispies:
Stir in the Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
Transfer to Pan:
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Press it down gently with a spatula or your hands (use wax paper to avoid sticking).
Cool and Cut:
Let the treats cool for about an hour at room temperature. Once firm, cut them into squares.
Dosage Note:
Divide the batch into equal squares to ensure consistent dosing. Example: If the recipe contains 100 mg of THC, and you cut 10 squares, each square will have 10 mg THC. Enjoy responsibly, and store leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness!
FAQs
How do you accurately dose THC per square?
Calculate the total THC in your distillate first, based on its potency—like if it's 90% THC, 0.1 grams gives about 90 mg. Add that full amount off heat and stir it in really well for even spread. Cut the cooled batch into equal-sized squares, then divide total THC by the number of pieces. The blog's example nails it: 100 mg total for 10 squares means 10 mg each.
Should cannabutter or infused oil work better for this recipe?
THC distillate works better here because it's flavorless, super precise for dosing, and mixes in easily without extra steps. Cannabutter adds a classic buttery taste that fits treats perfectly, but it can bring a weed flavor and makes dosing trickier since potency varies. Infused oil is similar to butter but lighter. Many folks swap it in by melting with the butter, though distillate keeps things clean and potent.
How does heat affect THC potency during preparation?
Low heat for melting butter and marshmallows doesn't hurt THC much, especially since you add distillate after removing from the stove. THC holds up fine below around 300°F, and this recipe stays way under that. Overheating could degrade some potency, but gentle stirring keeps it safe. It's all about avoiding high temps to preserve the full strength.
What mistakes commonly lead to uneven dosing?
Not stirring the distillate thoroughly after adding it off heat is a big one, leaving hot spots in some squares. Cutting uneven pieces or eyeballing portions throws off the per-square dose. Adding infusion while still on heat or poor mixing clumps things up. Starting with unmeasured potency guesses the total THC wrong from the jump.
How long do the effects typically last from this edible?
Effects from these treats usually last 6 to 8 hours, though it can stretch to 12 for some folks depending on dose and tolerance. The peak hits strongest around 2-4 hours in, with a slower fade after. Residual vibes might linger into the next day. It's longer than smoking because of how edibles process through your liver.
How should infused treats be stored safely?
Keep them in an airtight container at room temp in a cool, dark spot to hold freshness and potency. Label clearly and stash out of reach from kids or pets—maybe in a locked box. Fridge works if it's humid, but room temp is usually fine for these. Avoid heat or light to prevent melting or degradation.
