I love brown sugar,

I use it in lots of cookies and scones.

It keeps cookies moist, so if you have a favorite cookie recipe, that seems to get a little dry or to firm, change half or all the sugar for brown sugar.

You may just love it more than the original, I know I usually do.

Of course it’s really delicious on top of oatmeal too!

I use light browns sugar the most, but will tell you how to make dark brown sugar also.

You will need white granulated sugar and molasses,

use a pastry cutter to make brown sugar

I’ve found its easiest to blend the molasses into the sugar by using a pastry cutter, but a spatula will work too.

I use brown sugar in lots of recipes like
