Homemade Brown Sugar
This Homemade Brown Sugar recipe uses granulated sugar and molasses to replicate the soft texture and deep caramel flavor of brown sugar. Combining one cup of white sugar with a tablespoon of molasses and blending thoroughly results in a moist and aromatic sugar suitable for baking and cooking. Adjusting the molasses quantity can get a lighter shade.
