  • 1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

  3. In another bowl, whisk together the vanilla custard powder, milk, and powdered sugar until smooth.
  4. Spread the custard mixture evenly over the crust in the pan.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate and cannabis-infused butter together, stirring occasionally until smooth.

Tips

  • When melting the chocolate, be sure to do it in short intervals and stir frequently to prevent burning.
  • For a stronger cannabis flavor, you can use cannabis-infused coconut oil instead of butter.
  • Store the Nanaimo bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
