To kick things off, you’ll want to cream together your sugar and cannabis-infused butter inside of a substantially large bowl. Keep that going until the contents are soft and airy.
At that point, you can add in your eggs, but beat them in one at a time. Also, be sure to beat them completely into the mixture, before adding the next one.
After that, you can mix in your orange juice and orange extract.
Now, in a completely different bowl, whisk together your baking powder, salt, and flour. Then, when you’re happy with how blended together those dry ingredients are with one another, add them to your wet ingredients.
Following that quick step, cover that bowl of ingredients, and toss that sucker in the fridge for about an hour to firm up.
Preheat that oven of yours to 350°.
As that warms up, remove the dough from the fridge, and start to create balls of it with the help of a tablespoon. You will then transfer these balls into a greased muffin tin, being sure to press down on each ball, to create a dough-like lining for each cup, because the ganache will later be placed in the middle, but we’ll get to that in a minute.
After you’ve used all of your dough, place that muffin tin in the oven for a little under 10 minutes. You’ll know they are ready, once the edges start to brown a bit. And, when that happens, remove them from the oven, and place them on the counter to mellow out for a couple of minutes, before placing each one on a wire rack until they fully return to room temperature.
As they cool, dust each one with a “healthy” amount of confectioners’ sugar.
Then, place your chocolate into a small bowl, and set aside for the time being.
Next, bring your cream to a boil in a small saucepan. And, when it reaches that boiling point, transfer it over to your small bowl of chocolate, whisking up the contents the entire time. Keep that whisking up until everything takes on a super-smooth consistency.
Let that chocolate concoction mellow out for a second, before covering it up, and throwing it in the fridge for an hour or so to thicken, but stir it every so often to keep it at a “spreadable” consistency.
When that 60 minutes is up, remove it from the cold confines of the fridge, and start to pipe your ganache into every cooled cookie cup, and boom, you’re done!
