Desserts
Dessert is the best part of the meal, so why save it for last? These delicious sweets are sure to make you smile. Cakes, pie, cookies, bars, cobblers, and muffins provide a range of tasty sweets you can make with medical marijuana. Many patients enjoy medicating with desserts because they are easy to portion into manageable sizes, and of course, because they are scrumptious. You, too, might find that a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down.
 
These are so yummy you will want more than one so cut the cannabutter dosage and enjoy more.
