Block 3: Paragraph — Introduction
This beloved Aussie slice gets a grown-up makeover with the addition of cannabutter, transforming the classic coconut rough into a perfectly dosed edible treat. With its chewy coconut base studded with chocolate chips and topped with a rich chocolate layer, it’s the kind of slice that disappears from the kitchen counter faster than you can say “lamington.”
Each piece contains approximately 17.5mg THC when made with standard cannabutter, making it ideal for both experienced users and those preferring a moderate dose. Remember to start with half a piece if you’re new to edibles, or calculate your exact dose with our free Edibles Dosage Calculator.

Block 14: Custom HTML — Steps
Preheat your oven to 180°C and line a 20x20cm square pan with baking paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
Melt the cannabutter gently in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave in 20-second intervals until just liquid.
Combine the desiccated coconut, flour, and chocolate chips in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted cannabutter, condensed milk, eggs, and vanilla extract.
Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined — don’t overmix. The mixture should be thick and sticky. Leaf Chocolate Moulds 2-pack (Silicone) will be essential for cooling later.
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into your prepared pan using the back of a spoon or your hands (lightly dampened to prevent sticking).
Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the centre is just set. Don’t overbake — it should still have a slight wobble in the centre.
Cool completely in the pan while you prepare the chocolate topping. Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the cooled coconut base, spreading evenly with a palette knife. Sprinkle with extra coconut and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until the chocolate is completely set.
Cut into 16 pieces using the paper overhang to lift the slice from the pan. Store in an airtight container with clear dosage labelling.

Perfect Texture
Toast the coconut lightly in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes before mixing for extra flavour and crunch.
Chocolate Layer
Let the base cool completely before adding chocolate — warm base will melt the topping and create a mess.
Half-Strength Option
Replace 25g of cannabutter with regular butter for an 8.8mg dose per piece — perfect for beginners or daytime treats.
Clean Cuts
Chill the slice thoroughly and use a hot, clean knife for professional-looking pieces that won’t crumble.
Flavour Variations
Try white chocolate topping with lime zest, or add chopped macadamias to the coconut base for extra Aussie flair.
Label Everything
Always label your slices with contents, THC dose, and date made — essential for safe storage and sharing.

Block 21: Shortcode — FAQs
Absolutely! Replace 25g of cannabutter with regular butter to halve the potency to approximately 8.8mg per piece. This is perfect for beginners or those who prefer a lighter dose. The texture and flavour will remain identical.
Cannabis edibles typically take 30-120 minutes to take effect, with peak effects occurring around 2-4 hours after consumption. The fats in this slice can slow absorption slightly, so be patient and don’t eat more within the first 90 minutes.
If you’re using store-bought cannabutter, decarboxylation is already done. If making your own cannabutter, yes — you must decarboxylate your cannabis flower first to activate the THC. Heat raw cannabis at 110°C for 30-40 minutes before infusing into butter.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze individually wrapped pieces for up to 3 months. Always label containers with contents, dosage per piece, and date made for safe storage.
Stay calm and find a safe, comfortable place to wait it out. Drink water, try to sleep if possible, and remember that while uncomfortable, a cannabis overdose isn’t dangerous. Effects will fade in 4-8 hours. Call 13 11 26 (Poisons Information) if you’re concerned.
Yes! Replace the 50g melted cannabutter with 45ml cannabis coconut oil for a dairy-free version. The potency will be similar if made with equivalent amounts of cannabis. The coconut oil will also complement the coconut flavours beautifully.
