Let’s face it—life can be a little too much sometimes. Deadlines, traffic jams, and your neighbor’s questionable taste in late-night karaoke can leave anyone craving a moment of calm. Enter CBD-infused desserts: the ultimate combination of sweet indulgence and chill vibes. Why not treat yourself to a dessert that not only satisfies your sweet tooth but also helps you relax? Grab your apron (and your sense of humor), because we’re about to dive into some seriously delicious recipes.
1. Blissful CBD Energy Bites
Think of these as tiny balls of happiness that fit perfectly into your palm. Packed with natural ingredients and a dash of CBD, these bites are perfect for a quick snack or a post-yoga treat.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond butter (or peanut butter, if you’re feeling rebellious)
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp chia seeds (because we’re fancy like that)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1–2 droppers of CBD oil (adjust to your desired strength)
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine oats, almond butter, honey, chia seeds, and vanilla extract. Stir until it looks like something you’d proudly serve to a health-conscious Instagram influencer.
- Add chocolate chips and mix again.
- Drizzle in your CBD oil and give it one final stir. (Pro tip: Don’t skimp on the mixing—it’s a workout in itself.)
- Roll the mixture into bite-sized balls, about the size of a ping-pong ball.
- Pop them in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up, then enjoy!
These bites are like edible yoga for your soul—relaxing, energizing, and oh-so-satisfying.
2. Chill-Out CBD Brownies
Brownies are already magical, but adding CBD takes them to a whole new level. These fudgy delights are perfect for when you need to unwind after a long day—or just because you deserve it.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup coconut oil (melted)
- 1 cup sugar (because we’re not that healthy)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder (the darker, the better)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1–2 droppers of CBD oil
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper (because who likes scrubbing pans?).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together melted coconut oil and sugar until it looks like liquid gold. Add eggs one at a time, whisking after each addition.
- Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth batter that’s begging to be licked off the spoon.
- Mix in the CBD oil—this is the secret ingredient that turns regular brownies into “relaxation squares.”
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly gooey. (Gooey centers = happiness.)
- Let the brownies cool before cutting them into squares—if you can wait that long!
Serve these with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or enjoy them solo while binge-watching your favorite show. Either way, bliss is guaranteed.
3. Tropical CBD Coconut Bowls
Why settle for dessert on a plate when you can have it in a bowl made of coconut? These tropical treats are as Instagram-worthy as they are delicious.
Ingredients:
- 2 fresh coconuts (halved and cleaned—you can find these pre-cut if you’re not in the mood to wrestle with a machete)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for a dairy-free option)
- 1/2 cup granola (the crunchier, the better)
- Fresh fruit: mango slices, kiwi, berries—whatever makes you feel like you’re on a beach vacation
- 1–2 droppers of CBD oil
Instructions:
- Scoop Greek yogurt into the coconut halves like you’re filling tiny edible treasure chests.
- Top with granola and fresh fruit in an artful arrangement that screams “I’m way too cool for regular bowls.”
- Drizzle CBD oil over the top for that extra layer of zen.
- Grab a spoon and dig in!
These bowls are perfect for weekend brunches or whenever you need to channel tropical island vibes without leaving your couch.
4. CBD Buddha Bowl Parfait
Okay, technically this isn’t dessert—it’s more of an anytime snack—but who’s keeping track? This layered parfait is as calming as it is colorful, and it’s ridiculously easy to make.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries—you get the idea)
- 1/2 cup granola (yes, again; granola deserves all the love)
- 1 cup plain or vanilla yogurt (dairy or plant-based)
- A drizzle of honey or agave syrup
- A sprinkle of shredded coconut (optional but highly recommended)
- 1–2 droppers of CBD oil
Instructions:
- In a tall glass or mason jar (because mason jars make everything cooler), layer yogurt, granola, and berries like you’re assembling an edible masterpiece.
- Drizzle honey or agave syrup between layers for extra sweetness—and because life is short.
- Add CBD oil to one of the yogurt layers for that calming touch.
- Sprinkle shredded coconut on top for a little extra flair, then serve with a spoon and a smile.
This parfait is so good it might just replace your morning coffee ritual—and that’s saying something.
