These snacks are super simple to make, making them a great choice for the beginning marijuana chef. They're quick too, which makes them a good choice for those who want a pot snack in a hurry. What's even better is that these snacks can also be saved and munched on for later. Trust me, with a recipe as simple as this one, there's no way you won't enjoy these pecan pot snacks!

 

What You'll Need;

1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

4 ounces light cream cheese

¼ teaspoon salt

1 cup all-purpose flour

5 tablespoons of cannabutter, softened

1 tablespoon of melted cannabutter

2/3 cup chopped pecans

¾ cup light brown sugar

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

1 large egg

 

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Take a 24 cup mini muffin pan and grease it well. Soften the butter and the cream cheese and add them to a large mixing bowl, churning them together by hand until they are smooth (you can use an electric mixer if you don't want to do it by hand). Pour in the flour and the powdered sugar a little bit at a time, being sure to blend in the small amounts before adding more. When everything is blended smoothly, add in 1/8 teaspoon of salt to the dough mix and work it with your hands to form a smooth ball.

 

Use some flour to cove a flat work surface and use a floured rolling pin to roll the dough out in to a circle, like a pizza. It should be about 1/8th of an inch thick. Using a knife, cut the dough in to 24 squares. Take the trimmings from the edges and set them aside for later. Turn each square in to a small ball and then flatten it back in to a circular flat disc. Flatten these small dough discs in to the muffin cups. If you don't have enough squares, take some of the dough from your leftover trimmings and use that. Put the tray in the fridge.

 

Take the egg, melted cannabutter, remaining salt, brown sugar, chocolate, and vanilla and mix them together in a bowl until they're well combined. Take half of the pecan pieces that you have and toss them in the muffin cups. Then, pour the sugar mixture over the pecans, topping them off with the rest of the pecans. Put the tray in the oven for about 20 minutes. Let the treats cool for 5 minutes before taking a knife and cutting them out slowly with a knife. Let the snacks cool on a wire rack and store them in an airtight container! Enjoy!

I have always said that if there are patients suffering in a state, and medical marijuana will help those patients alleviate their suffering, than that state’s legislature should legalize medical marijuana. This is especially true if voters in that state support such a move. One would think that a politician would take ownership of the idea and push it through the state legislature, and in the process look like a genius.

 

I’m hoping that will be the case in Pennsylvania. A recent Mercyhurst Center of Applied Politics poll found that 85% of people support medical marijuana in Pennsylvania. I think people would be hard pressed to find an area of public policy that has that level of support in Pennsylvania. According to the poll:

 

A sizeable majority of Pennsylvania voters (85%) favor making it legal for patients to use marijuana if it was prescribed by their doctor, and only 10% oppose the position. The prospect of legalizing marijuana for medicinal purposes appears to have widespread support across key demographic groups including age, education, ideology, and party identification, and is favored in all five Pennsylvania’s regions (see Cross Tabulations).

There's always a constant battle between indicas and sativas, most of the time just ending with a hybrid of the two. But the two plants differ in a lot of ways when they're growing, not just when they're being smoked. Seeing as how there are now jobs that are popping up where knowing whether a cannabis plant is indica or sativa, this is definitely something that you should familiarize yourself with now so that you can jump on awesome jobs that include you testing cannabis all day and writing reviews about it.

 

We'll start with the indica (since it's my personal favorite). The indica plant grows in a short, wide stature with a better genetic makeup for being grown indoors. The leaves of these plants are shorter and stouter as well, when compared to the leaves of the sativa plants. Indica strains tend to have a seriously strong, sweet odor with the flowers. This specific kind of cannabis is great for relieving body pain, reducing stress and anxiety, and helps to reduce seizures. These are the strains that give the smoker couchlock and prevent you from ever getting anything done.

 

Sativa plants tend to get much bigger then the indicas and are better suited for those who are able to grow outdoors. These plants can reach height of 25ft high, making them more like trees then weeds. Leaves of the sativa plants are long and stringy, just like the plant. Sativa dominant strains usually contain the earthy odor that people like, more along the lines of grass. The high is uplifting and allows the user to get shit done. It provides feeling of well being and is extremely uplifting, making sativa strains prime for artists and those who are dealing with depression.

 

The strains that you smoke are totally up to you. Everyone has a preference and it's good to mix the two different kinds of bud every once in a while to make sure that you're getting a good dose of all of the different kinds of cannabis. If you want to create a painting or write a song, smoke a little bit of sativa. Looking to pass out or just sit at home all day and be lazy? Grab an indica. Whatever you're smoking, enjoy it!
