Out of Brown Sugar? You Can Make Your Own!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been halfway through a cookie recipe only to realize I’m out of brown sugar. Once I learned how easy it is to make at home with pantry staples, I stopped stressing about it completely, and now I make it any time I’m in a pinch! All you need is regular white granulated sugar and a little bit of molasses to mix in it. Store it at room temperature for months.
