• I. Ingredients:

To make a delicious sponge cake infused with CBD, gather the following ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 4 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1-2 full spectrum CBD oil drops (optional, for CBD infusion)

• II. Equipment

Before starting the recipe, ensure you have the following equipment

• Mixing bowls
• Electric mixer or whisk
• Rubber spatula
• 9-inch round cake pan
• Parchment paper
• Cooling rack

III. Step-by-Step Instructions

A. Preparing the CBD-infused Butter

1. In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove it from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
2. If desired, add 1-2 drops of full spectrum CBD oil to the melted butter and stir well to incorporate. Adjust the CBD dosage according to your personal preferences and the instructions provided with your CBD product.

B. Making the Sponge Cake Batter

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer or whisk until they become light and frothy.
4. Gradually add the granulated sugar to the beaten eggs, continuing to beat until the mixture becomes thick, pale, and ribbony.
5. Add the vanilla extract to the egg mixture and mix until well combined.
6. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture using a rubber spatula. Take care not to overmix, as this can deflate the batter.
7. Slowly pour the melted CBD-infused butter and milk into the batter, folding gently until fully incorporated.

C. Baking the Sponge Cake

1. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
2. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
3. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes.
4. Carefully transfer the cake to a cooling rack and allow it to cool completely before adding the CBD infusion.

D. Adding the CBD Infusion

1. If desired, add 1-2 drops of full spectrum CBD

oil to the top of the cooled sponge cake. Use a pastry brush to evenly distribute the CBD oil over the surface of the cake. Adjust the CBD dosage according to your personal preferences and the instructions provided with your CBD product.

• Allow the CBD-infused sponge cake to sit for a few minutes to allow the CBD oil to absorb into the cake.

IV. Tips and Variations

• CBD Dosage: When infusing CBD into the sponge cake, it’s important to follow the dosage instructions provided with your CBD product and consult with a healthcare professional, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking medication. Adjust the CBD dosage according to your personal preferences and the desired effects.
• Flavor Variations: While the classic sponge cake has a delicate vanilla flavor, you can experiment with adding other flavorings such as citrus zest, almond extract, or chocolate to create different variations. Remember to adjust the CBD dosage accordingly if you choose to incorporate additional flavors.
• Decoration and Frosting: Sponge cakes are versatile and can be served plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or frosted and decorated for special occasions. Consider adding CBD-infused frosting or drizzling a CBD-infused glaze over the cake for an extra CBD boost.

V. Serving and Storage

Once your CBD-infused sponge cake is prepared, follow these serving and storage guidelines:

1. Serving: Slice the sponge cake into desired portions using a sharp knife. Serve the sponge cake on its own or pair it with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream for a delightful dessert.
2. Storage: Store any leftover sponge cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If desired, you can also refrigerate the cake to extend its shelf life. Remember that CBD-infused baked goods may have a shorter shelf life compared to non-infused ones due to the addition of CBD oil. Consume the cake within a reasonable timeframe to enjoy its freshness and potential benefits.

VI. Conclusion

By infusing CBD into a classic sponge cake, you can elevate this beloved dessert with potential therapeutic benefits and add a modern twist to the recipe. The light and airy texture of the sponge cake, combined with the potential relaxation offered by CBD, creates a delightful and potentially calming treat. With the help of this comprehensive guide, you have all the information you need to create a perfect CBD-infused sponge cake in your own kitchen. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating CBD into your diet, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking medication.
