Kinda... Maybe? Thc binds to the fat molecules in butter.
for best results use ghee butter.. it tastes kinda gross.. but once baked into some cookies or cake it's not that bad.
also when cooking, make sure you simmer on a low heat for a long time.
I usually use about an ounce of sugar trim to about 500g of ghee
50-100g of butter will usually make 12-24 cookies depending how strong you want them

from my understanding margarine is vegetable fat, butter is dairy fat.. from what I've heard / read the bonding works much better with butter.
could be wrong though.. never actually bothered trying with marge
I guess it might work.. maybe just not as well..?

Yeah it should work THC is an oil and that is what allows it to bond to the fat in the butter should be the same thing with margarine. And I know a good recipe to use where u don't have to cook it for hours it only takes about 30-45min, what u do is throw a shot of 100 proof vodka in with the water, weed, and butter/margarine. Cook for 30-45 min at a low simmer the alcohol helps to break down the THC on the plant and bond it to the fat and you don't have to cook it for hours. My usual measurments is an oz per pound of butter, if ur using bud, but if its just shake and trimmings, u can use more even double it.

Yeah as the others have stated, THC is a fat soluble molecule, meaning it will readily dissolve into fat of any kind. Be it Olive oil, Margarine, Butter, Peanut oil. Just be sure to heat it gently prior to use to activate the THC. People use butter because it tastes better.

Crisco should work well too. I wouldn't use margarine, though, because it separates.

Mantizn seems to know what he's talking about. You might get better responses from people who have tried/compared results in the Cooking with Cannabis section x
I tend to use real butter, or whole milk, but I'm no expert.

Yeah Mantizn said to use GHEE which is clarified brown butter. You can also clarify your butter first, which is removing the milk solids and water from the butter, before adding your trim or whatever cannabis product you choose to use. Shake, buds, leaf, keif, etc. I wouldn't recommend using buds, save those for smoking or vaporizing. But you can dry out the small lower tiny buds and grind them up into a fine powder then add that to your butter.

It should work every bit as well. All greases and oils are superb solvents/dispersants for THC. cn

I may have jumped the gun.. its all hokum..
I searched around a lot and i'd say about 2 in 3 articles on making butter said do NOT use marge, I always disregarded margarine ..
I used ghee and it worked very well, so never bothered with anything else..
but i guess if firecrackers work 'most anything will.
i've got a fuckload of vape poo i want to try some extracts on... i heard baked goods work well. but i'm keen for oyelz.. they will be cbd heavy i guess..
