Cannabis Infusion:
- When I make these yummies, I use one stick of canna-butter. You get to control how potent you want your canna-butter before you decarb and make the butter
- If using a cannabis oil that is pre-made, add to the wet ingredients, including the softened butter and mix thoroughly with an electric mixer and make sure the cannabis oil isn't clumping
The Stuff You'll Need:
- 1 vanilla cake mix
- 8 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Pay Attention to the Directions:
- Mix together the cake mix, butter, egg, and vanilla until soft dough forms.
- Add the cream cheese and mix again.
- Stir in the cookie chunks, 1/2 cup M&M's, and 1/4 cup of the sprinkles gently. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes to an hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Roll into 24 even dough balls. Press the remaining M&M's into the tops of the dough balls. Add extra sprinkles to the tops of the the dough balls, if desired.
- Place the dough balls on the cookie sheets and bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and cool on the cookie sheets for 2 minutes, before moving them to a piece of parchment paper on the counter.
