Ganja Butter: Perfect for any recipe calling for butter.
either a potato ricer or a package of cheesecloth and a wooden spoon
a colander
a big bowl (not the kind you smoke!)
a big pot (a cooking pot...LMAO!) or crockpot (my suggestion)
First, melt that butter in your big pot (don't burn it!) and add about 1/4 cup of water.
Add your leaf and simmer, on LOW, covered, overnight or many hours if you can't wait that long. Note: your entire house will smell like a giant bong rip!
Remove from heat in the morning and cool slightly. When it's cool enough to handle, drain the leaf/butter mixture in a colander over a big bowl. Try to squeeze as much liquid out as you can - that's the good stuff!
When you've extracted all you can, either use a potato ricer or the cheesecloth to strain even more butter juice out of the leaf pulp. If you're using cheesecloth, use a couple of layers and twist the ends around a wooden spoon handle to make a crank which you keep twisting until you can't extract any more butter juice.
You need:
three 1/2 cup cubes of butter
a half oz. (or more if you got it) of marijuana leaf
a splash of H2O

Cool the butter in the fridge, and viola! You're ready to spread it on a bagel (yum) or cut into cubes and put in freezer.
