How to Cook Hemp Cookies for a Calm Christmas

It’s the most chill time of the year, the tree is up, the lights are twinkling, and someone’s already eaten half the fruitcake.

It’s Christmas, the season for cozy nights, laughter, and a kitchen that smells like happiness.

This year, we’re turning the holiday tradition up a notch with something special: Hemp Cookies.

Yes, you read that right. Cookies, but with a Gethemp twist. They’re buttery, chewy, a little nutty, and absolutely perfect for sharing.

These aren’t your average festive treats. They’re for the curious, the adventurous, and the ones who believe Christmas should be a vibe, not a race.

Why Hemp Cookies?

Because they’re fun, unique, and have that subtle earthy edge that pairs beautifully with chocolate, vanilla, and cinnamon.

They’re also a great conversation starter, imagine pulling out a tin of fresh hemp cookies at your Christmas party and watching everyone’s eyebrows raise in delicious curiosity.

Most importantly, hemp cookies make baking a little more creative and a lot more memorable. You’ll feel like you’re crafting something special, not just following another Pinterest recipe.

What You’ll Need

(Makes about 20 cookies, depending on how much dough you "sample")

• ½ cup unsalted butter
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ¼ cup white sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• Pinch of salt
• ¼ cup finely ground hemp flower from Gethemp (pick your favorite strain, think of it like choosing your spice)
• ½ cup chocolate chips or crushed peppermint candy for that Christmas sparkle

Step-by-Step: Let’s Bake the Calm

Step 1: Prep the hemp
Grind your hemp flower until fine, like a coarse herb. This will mix smoothly into the dough and evenly spread its aroma throughout your cookies.
(Pro tip: use your best-smelling flower for this, the flavor subtly carries through.)

Step 2: Melt the magic (aka the butter)
In a small pan, melt your butter slowly. Don’t rush it, let it turn golden and nutty.
Pour it into a bowl, let it cool slightly, then whisk in your sugars until smooth and glossy.

Step 3: Build the base
Add the egg and vanilla. Mix until it’s creamy and smells like something you could already eat.

Step 4: Mix in the dry stuff
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, and your finely ground hemp flower.
Slowly fold it into your wet mixture until the dough feels soft but not sticky.

Step 5: Add the holiday magic
This is your creative moment, add chocolate chips, peppermint pieces, or even chopped nuts. Make it yours. Make it festive.

Step 6: Bake
Scoop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined tray.
Bake at 175°C for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centers still look soft.

Let them rest for a few minutes, they’ll finish cooking on the tray (and trust us, they taste better when slightly warm).

The Taste

he first bite? Buttery. Sweet. A hint of something intriguing.
That subtle earthy note from the hemp balances the sugar beautifully, kind of like when your favorite song hits that perfect low beat.
It’s not overpowering; it’s sophisticated, cozy, and uniquely you.

Pair it with a cup of coffee, a glass of milk, or a mug of hot cocoa, and you’ve officially entered holiday bliss.

Decorating Ideas

If you want to go full Christmas mode:

• Drizzle melted white chocolate over the top for a snowy effect.
• Dust with crushed candy cane for a pop of color and crunch.
• Or use gold edible glitter, because your cookies deserve a little glam.
  

A Thoughtful Homemade Gift

Wrap a few in brown paper, tie with twine and a pine sprig, and tag it with:

“Baked with calm. Shared with love.”

A Few Baking Notes

• Always use high-quality hemp flower (you know where to find it).
• Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh for days.
• They also freeze beautifully, if you manage not to eat them all first.

The Gethemp Christmas Spirit

At Gethemp, we believe calm is something you can create, sometimes it’s a quiet morning, sometimes it’s a warm oven and a bowl of dough.

This recipe is about more than cookies; it’s about slowing down, savoring the season, and baking something that makes people feel good, in every sense of the word.

So this Christmas, turn up your favorite playlist, light a candle, and let the scent of hemp cookies fill your kitchen.

Because the holidays shouldn’t be rushed, they should be tasted.

Merry Christmas from all of us at Gethemp.
Bake the calm. Share the joy. Taste the difference.
