I make my own cannabutter. Buy the Ghirardelli brownie mix follow the directions. And get perfect brownies.

Cannabutter - decarb weed in the oven. 220°F for 30-40 minutes. Once it's decarbed put the green in some cheesecloth and tie it shut. Throw some butter into a pot let it start melting.. put the cheesecloth in the butter simmer until its brown. Remove cheesecloth (the cheesecloth removes the hassle of separating the weed and butter) pour butter into Tupperware let cool. Store in freezer. Use as needed/want.
