THC-infused dark chocolate & olive oil brownies

Dark chocolate, olive oil and a little flaky salt, with THC from Kiva Dark Chocolate. Read the product notes before baking.

What gives it THC

Kiva Dark Chocolate · standard 5 mg pieces

2 pieces, each labeled 5 mg THC. Melted into the plain chocolate and olive oil before the batter is mixed.

California adult-use example, 21+. The package amount describes the ingredient; it does not establish THC per brownie after baking and cutting.

Olive oil keeps the ingredient list straightforward, and plain dark chocolate gives the batter its main chocolate flavor. The THC comes from two specified pieces of Kiva Dark Chocolate. Check that package first, then keep it with your recipe notes so the finished tray can be identified clearly.

Make it step by step.

Ingredients

Tick off what you have ready.

Equipment

  • 8 in / 20 cm square metal baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Kitchen scale, measuring jug and spoons
  • Heatproof bowl and a saucepan for a water bath
  • Mixing bowl, whisk and flexible spatula
  • Fine-mesh sieve
  • Cake tester or skewer
  • Cooling rack and knife
  • Clearly labeled, child-resistant container with locked storage

Steps

  1. Confirm the exact Kiva product, the amount per piece and the instructions on the actual local package. A different strength needs a separately developed recipe. Heat the oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line the pan with parchment, leaving enough overhang to lift the cooled slab.

  2. Put the two specified THC chocolate pieces, plain chopped chocolate and olive oil in the heatproof bowl. Set it over a saucepan of gently simmering water, keeping the bowl above the water. Stir until the chocolate is melted, then take the bowl off the heat and let it become warm rather than hot.

  3. Whisk the eggs and sugar together until combined and slightly thickened. Whisk in the vanilla and warm chocolate mixture. Sift in the flour, cocoa and fine salt, then fold with the spatula until no dry flour remains, scraping the sides and base. Do not taste the raw batter.

  4. Scrape the batter into the lined pan and spread it level. Add the optional flaky salt. Bake for about 25–30 minutes, checking for set edges and a center that gives moist crumbs on a tester, not liquid batter. Continue baking if the center is still wet; oven and pan differences affect the timing.

  5. Leave the pan on a cooling rack until completely cool, allowing at least 1 hour and longer if needed. Lift out the slab and cut into 16 small squares for the planned recipe yield. Label the container as containing THC and keep it separate from ordinary brownies. Equal-looking pieces do not establish equal THC amounts.

Ingredient notes

Timing and yield

Times and yields are estimates. Afterlo has not kitchen-tested this recipe.

Weigh the ingredients

Use the listed gram weights for the plain chocolate, sugar, flour and cocoa. The accompanying cup and ounce measures are approximate. King Arthur Baking: ingredient weights

Use the named chocolate

Use the standard Kiva Dark Chocolate package that identifies one piece as 5 mg THC. Keep the exact label with the batch record. Kiva's current Dark Chocolate ingredient list includes milk. Ingredients and cannabinoid amounts can vary by state, so check the actual local package. A whole bar, another strength or a different product is not the same ingredient. Kiva: Dark Chocolate product and package reference

Baking does not verify a dose

The labeled content of the chocolate is an ingredient reference. Mixing, heating and dividing this batter have not been assayed for retained THC or even distribution. The cut count is a culinary yield, not a personal serving recommendation. This recipe gives no repeat-serving schedule. CDC: cannabis edibles and poisoning

California, adults 21+

This example uses California's licensed adult-use market. Check local and property rules, buy the specified product through a licensed retailer, and serve only to an informed adult who has chosen THC. The brand's separate hemp store does not establish the identity of a California package. California DCC: what's legal

Keep the batch clearly separate

Label these brownies as containing THC. Keep them in locked, childproof storage, out of the sight and reach of children and pets, and separate from ordinary food. Keep the original product package and batch note so another person can identify what was used. CDC: cannabis edibles and poisoning

Raw batter and allergens

Flour and eggs need cooking, so do not taste the raw batter. The listed eggs and flour introduce egg and wheat. Check both chocolate packages for milk, soy and other allergens; a dark-chocolate name does not establish that a product is dairy-free. FDA: flour and raw batter

Alcohol and driving

Use alcohol-free flavoring and do not add other THC ingredients. Do not drive after using cannabis. This recipe cannot determine a safe driving interval or predict an individual effect. CDC: cannabis and driving
