Hoc est corpus. In church, when you eat the host, you eat God. By eating Him you become Him, because “you are what you eat”.
There is also the old Jewish custom of making a small flat bread, inscribing it with a talisman and then baking it. The goal of it is to make the young man retain what he has been studying. In researching the correct spelling of a rather obscure Angelic name I found and restored a mangled version of that ritual a couple of years ago.
And in certain rituals in witchcraft, after the ritual or ceremony, cookies are blessed and eaten to ground oneself.
So. You can combine the above and make an edible talisman into which a spirit is called which is then eaten and grounded into you.
A simple but very tasty recipe: (@Diluculo_DelFuego : didn't want to hijack your cookie thread. Just a weird synchronicity once again I guess.)
Inscribe (or decorate) them with appropriate symbols or a talisman / seal of your liking. This obviously can be tricky and the more complex the symbol, the easier it is to mess it up. The simpler the better.
Bake them (yeah..) for 20-30 minutes on 190 degrees Celsius / 374 Fahrenheit.
As good as they may smell and look: do not eat a single crumb.
If they have cooled down, cover them and take them to your ritual area.
Perform the following ritual:
ICheD is Hebrew (one / union) from which comes IChIDH (“Yechida” soul)
KHUT (Egyptian) = amulet / charm / talisman.
In Hebrew, KVTh = likeness / in agreement with. This then is a good description of what a talisman is.
“(name of entity), unite with this amulet”
In the Book of the Law the recipe for the cakes of light is given. I kinda doubt they're tasty. Maybe if you don't know what's in them they'd be alright. However..
“The Khabs is in the Khu, not the Khu in the Khabs.”
The Egyptian KHU has several meanings, for example “evening / night / high / fire / flame” are possible. In words that end in KHU there is often a reference to light. So let's take “fire / flame” as light here.
KHABS = star
So “cakes of light” is likely a play on words and “the Khabs is in the Khu” could (on one level) be the instruction to evoke a god(dess) into the cake.

- 1 part (powdered) sugar
- 2 parts butter
- 3 parts (spelt) flour
- a pinch of salt

If they have cooled down, cover them and take them to your ritual area.
Perform the following ritual:
- (Cleanse / banish / set up your circle / do whatever you usually do when you start your ritual)
- Call to the Angel, Goddess or Demon that rules over the concept / planet / characteristic you wish to take into yourself.
- Meditate.
- Visualize the entity as a small sphere of light in an appropriate color, forming above your altar.
- Invite / will / command the sphere of light to merge with the cookie that has its seal or any other appropriate symbolism on it. Cup the sphere with both hands and bring them over the cookie, or use the invoking-two-handed pentagram.
- Pick up the ensouled body, hold it with both hands, look at the symbols on it, say:
(name of entity) + ICheD + KHUT
- close your eyes, and eat it. Enjoy.
