These cannabis cornflake cookies bring back childhood memories with a grown-up twist.

They’re simple, satisfying, and have that homestyle charm that makes them perfect for afternoon tea or a quiet evening treat.
Made with cannabutter, each cookie delivers approximately 12mg THC when using standard potency cannabutter.

Preheat your oven to 180°C and line two baking trays with parchment paper. Lightly crush the cornflakes in a bowl, leaving some larger pieces for texture.
Cream the softened cannabutter and caster sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer. Beat in the golden syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined, then gently fold in the crushed cornflakes.
Shape the dough into walnut-sized balls using your hands or a Digital Kitchen Scale (0.01g) to ensure even dosing. Place on prepared trays, spacing them 5cm apart.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are golden brown but centers still look slightly soft. They’ll continue cooking on the hot tray.
Cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. The cookies will crisp up as they cool completely.
Cornflake Crunch
Don’t crush the cornflakes too finely—you want varied textures from small pieces to quarter-flakes for the best bite.
Golden Syrup Substitute
No golden syrup? Use honey or maple syrup, but reduce other liquids slightly as they’re more fluid.
Half-Strength Option
Replace 25g cannabutter with regular butter for 6mg THC per cookie—perfect for daytime treats.
Dosage Control
Use a kitchen scale to portion identical cookie sizes, ensuring consistent dosing across your batch.
Storage Success
These stay fresh for up to a week in an airtight container—the cornflakes maintain their crunch beautifully.
Always Label
Label your container with “Cannabis Cornflake Cookies – 12mg THC each” and today’s date for safe storage.
| Method | Duration | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Room temperature | 7 days | Airtight container essential |

Absolutely! Replace 25g of cannabutter with regular butter to create 6mg THC cookies instead of 12mg. This gives you more control over dosing and is perfect for sharing with less experienced users.
Expect to feel effects within 30-120 minutes after eating. The onset depends on your metabolism, what you’ve eaten recently, and your tolerance. Always wait at least 90 minutes before considering another cookie.
Yes, if you’re making your own cannabutter. Decarboxylation activates the THC, making it psychoactive when eaten. If you’re buying pre-made cannabutter, this step has already been done for you.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Always label the container with contents, THC dosage, and date. Keep away from children and pets—they look like regular cookies!
Stay calm and hydrated. Find a comfortable, safe space and wait it out—the effects will pass. Contact the Australian Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 if you’re concerned, or seek medical attention if experiencing severe anxiety or panic.
Yes, but use about 40g of cannabis coconut oil instead of 50g cannabutter, as coconut oil is more concentrated. The cookies will have a slightly different texture but similar potency if your oil is made with the same cannabis ratio.
