Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 180°C (355°F). Grease and line a 20 cm square tin with baking paper.
  2. 2
    Beat cannabutter, regular butter and caster sugar until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs one at a time. Mix in vanilla.
  3. 3
    Fold in self-raising flour alternately with milk until just combined. Pour into tin and smooth top.
  4. 4
    Bake 22–25 minutes until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in tin 10 minutes, then turn out to cool completely. Refrigerate the sponge 1 hour — cold sponge is far easier to dip.
  5. 5
    Make chocolate icing: sift icing sugar and cocoa into a deep bowl. Add boiling water and milk, stir until smooth and runny.
  6. 6
    Cut cold sponge into 16 squares. Using two forks, dip each in chocolate icing then roll immediately in desiccated coconut. Place on a wire rack.
  7. 7
    Allow to set at room temperature at least 30 minutes before serving.

Pro Tips

  • Chilling the sponge before dipping prevents crumbling — do not skip this step.
  • Split each lamington and fill with whipped cream and jam for the classic party version.
  • Each lamington is one dose. Do not eat two at once. Label the tin clearly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do edibles take to kick in?
Cannabis edibles typically take 30–90 minutes to kick in, depending on your metabolism, body weight, and whether you've eaten recently. Always wait at least 2 hours before consuming more to avoid overconsumption.
How do I calculate the THC dosage for Cannabis Lamingtons?
Use our THC Edibles Calculator to calculate the exact THC mg per serving based on your strain's potency and the amount of cannabis used. A common starting dose for beginners is 5–10 mg THC per serving.
Can I freeze Cannabis Lamingtons?
Yes, cannabis baked goods freeze well for up to 3 months. Wrap individual pieces tightly in cling film and store in a freezer bag. Thaw at room temperature for 1–2 hours before serving.
Can I replace cannabis oil with cannabutter in this recipe?
Yes, cannabutter and cannabis oil are interchangeable in most baked recipes. Use equal amounts by weight. Cannabutter tends to give a richer flavor, while cannabis coconut oil creates a lighter texture.
