Brown Sugar?
 
Is there a difference in Golden sugar & brown sugar. I've only used golden. DH just picked up brown sugar. Well I did ask for brown sugar.

:):)Well, I make my own "brown sugar" by mixing white sugar and as much molasses as I want for the flavor I want. I really like the dark brown so I use plenty of molasses!:o:o:o

Needed brown sugar for something I was asked to cook for diabetic husband. Looked for sugar-free brown "sugar." No luck. Called Splenda to find out when they were going to produce such a product. Was told "not yet." The lady went on to suggest combining Splenda and sugar-free pancake syrup. It works! Beautifully! It might take a recipe or two to get the amount of syrup just perfect for the eater(s), but it really does the job.

Cooking and baking for diabetics gets creative.

Thank you so much for this site. Just wasn't sure if I need to alter my amt. of liquid as this sugar seems to be so much more moist. I imagine my cookies will be a darker color.

Funny...when I was a kid we weren't allowed to have white sugar, only brown sugar, because Mom thought it was "less refined". Whoops! LOL

I found out what the difference was between light and dark brown sugar when I was making an Oatmeal Raisin cookie recipe. I usually only have light brown sugar available and the recipe called for dark. I looked on the internet found that all I had to do was add molasses to brown sugar. The next time I made the cookie (it is a well sought after recipe) I used dark brown sugar. Turned out that adding the molasses to the light brown sugar tasted much better.
