I'm not sure if this post meets criteria for this sub, but I'm not sure where else to ask! I've become really pretty good at making edible gummies within the last year or two; however, when it comes to baked goods that's an entirely different story. I've made chocolate chip cookies, gingerbread cookies, those peanut butter with hershey kiss cookies and of course, brownies - but they all have turned out really, really hard, crunchy and dry-tasting. I've followed recipes, swapping cannabutter for butter, so I'm not sure where I'm going wrong.

I've got a friend who wants me to make a cake for their partner's bday. I'm excited about making something, but I don't want it to turn out bad and dry.

How do you all get around having hard af baked goods? Do you have any tips or tricks? What am I missing?

Hi,

Although this is a German speaking forum I'll try to give an answer in English.

Don't bake your stuff too long! That's the whole secret. Use a thin wooden stick (like a toothpick) to examine wheather the cake ist ready or not. Push it into the cake: when there is some dough on the stick left, your cake needs some more minutes in the oven to bake. When the thick ist dry, your cake is ready to be taken out.
