Get one of those $20 “Mr.Coffee” coffee bean grinders. Break the brick up and toss it in. It will grind it to a flour. Basically it can turn the amount of herb you could fit into a 12oz cup into a powder that will fit in a shot glass. Then dump it in with the brownie mix / eggs / veg oil / water and cook away. No need to pre-cook in a butter, and your not wasting any of the plant by throwing it out. It will cut down on the time it takes to make brownies, much easier, and more potent by using the entire plant and not just what you can extract from it. It’s far healthier than smoking, and effects will last much longer.
