Ingredients:
-
CBD Gummy Syrup:
-
10 Strawberry CBD Gummies from Tweedle Farms
-
1–2 tablespoons water
-
-
Strawberry Topping:
-
1½ cups fresh strawberries, sliced
-
1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional, depending on sweetness of berries)
-
-
Assembly:
-
Store-bought shortcake shells
-
Whipped cream (store-bought, or homemade, if feeling crafty)
-
Additional fresh strawberries for garnish
-
Instructions:
1. Prepare the CBD Gummy Syrup:
-
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine 10 Strawberry CBD Gummies with 1–2 tablespoons of water.
-
Stir continuously until the gummies are fully melted into a smooth syrup.
-
Remove from heat and allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
Note: This syrup yields approximately 4 oz and contains about 250mg of cannabinoids. For a milder effect, consider using half the amount of syrup in the recipe.
2. Macerate the Strawberries:
-
In a bowl, let the sliced strawberries sit for about 10–15 minutes until they release their natural juices.
3. Combine Syrup with Strawberries:
-
Drizzle the cooled CBD gummy syrup over the macerated strawberries.
-
Gently stir to ensure the strawberries are well-coated with the syrup.
4. Assemble the Shortcakes:
-
Place a shortcake shell on a serving plate.
-
Spoon a generous amount of the CBD-infused strawberry mixture onto the shortcake.
-
Top with a dollop of whipped cream.
-
Garnish with additional fresh strawberries if desired.
That’s it! A quick, delicious way to elevate your dessert, and your evening. With juicy strawberries, fluffy shortcake, and a heavily dosed CBD syrup, this recipe is your ticket to a seriously chill summer evening.
