Making Brown Sugar

Last night I wanted to make chocolate chip cookies and realized there wasn't any brown sugar.

Turns out that's not a problem if you have molasses, which I didn't have... but I did have Karo syrup.

It's not exactly the same... but I tried it.

Without telling my hubby, I offered him some cookies - the true test - and he didn't notice that anything was different. They were as delicious as ever.

I wouldn't purposely use Karo... but I want to try molasses because I have read on-line that it's even better than store bought.

1 cup of sugar + 1-2 tbsp Karo Syrup (I attempted 2 tbsp but it was so sticky that a lot of it stuck on the spoon)




Mix together in a bowl. I used two forks to mix because it was super sticky.
