Did you ever go to make some cookies and you realize you’re out of brown sugar? …or the brown sugar has dried rock hard – and is beyond fixing? Me too!

If you have granulated sugar, molasses and a food processor, blender or chopper you’re in luck! You can make your own brown sugar – and it smells and tastes even better than store bought!

    Tina,

    I don’t use sugar, but do use Splenda. Could you substitute it for sugar? Thanks a million!

      Hi Linda – Thanks for reaching out! The other ingredient besides the sugar is molasses – which is another type of sweetener – Not sure if you can use?

      Referring to the authors comment you may be able to use black strap molasses since it is the lowest sugar molasses if you are just limiting sugar and mix it with the Splenda. I would use a baking blend tho bc normal Splenda is Way too sweet to make brown sugar out of. I use Splenda allulose personally and love it and it’s a 1-1 swap for sugar.
