Ingredients

• 1 full 3oz jar Veda Warrior Infused Coconut Oil (100mg THC, softened—not melted)

7. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the edges turn lightly golden.

8. Cool completely before serving.

Healing Benefits of the Ingredients

• Veda Warrior Infused Coconut Oil: In Ayurveda, coconut oil is cooling and supports healthy digestion, brain function, and skin clarity. The infusion of cannabis adds potential anti-inflammatory and mood-stabilizing effects.

• Lavender: Known for its calming effects, lavender may reduce anxiety and aid in restful sleep. It supports the nervous system and promotes emotional balance.

• Earl Grey (Black Tea + Bergamot): Black tea helps gently stimulate circulation and digestion, while bergamot has a subtle mood-lifting quality.

• Powdered Sugar & Flour: In moderation, these grounding ingredients create satiety and support the pleasure of eating.

• Vanilla: Calming and slightly warming, vanilla can uplift mood and soothe the heart.

These cookies are about more than indulgence—they invite pause, presence, and healing.

Dosing Guidance

• To make 40 cookies at 2.5mg THC per cookie: Slice thinner rounds or divide the dough into 40 even portions.

• To make 10 cookies at 10mg THC per cookie: Slice dough into 10 larger rounds.

• Ensure even THC distribution by thoroughly creaming the infused coconut oil during preparation.
