[header] How to make your own brown sugar [title] Measure sugar and molasses into a mixing bowl. [step] Pour 1 cup (200 g) of granulated sugar into a mixing bowl. Add molasses according to your taste or the type of brown sugar you want.
For light brown sugar, use 2 tablespoons (40 g) of molasses. For dark brown sugar, you can use up to 1/4 cup (84 g) of molasses. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing bowl to prevent the sugar from clumping to the bottom of the bowl. [substeps] The sugar doesn't have to be a certain color; just be sure it's one shade darker than molasses. If your recipe calls for pie consistency, substitute shortening for the flour to provide deep flavorings. Measure out 1 cup (200 g) of molasses and place it in the mixing bowl with the ingredients. Keep in mind that you can add vanilla extract or shortening, too. You may want to whisk in the molasses a few times so that it distributes smoothly into the cup (s) you already have.
