what is the purpose of brown sugar in cookies?
no no no
Eggs are not a replacement for milk. Water may be used instead of milk in sugar cookies.
Brown sugar can be substituted with white sugar with molasses added for the desired color.
For a basic recipe, the ingredients that are included is soft sugar cookies are as follows; sugar, butter, flour, eggs, baking soda, salt, vanilla, brown sugar, and baking sheets.
Sugar is hygroscopic, which means it draws moisture or water to itself. In addition to its sweetening properties, then, sugar helps make cookies tender and soft. Beyond this, sugar absorbs heat, which helps cookies to brown.
If you use brown sugar in place of white sugar, the cookies will still taste good.
In most sugar cookies the main ingredient is flour. The second ingredient would be sugar. There must be more flour than sugar or the cookies would not bake very well.
In baking, brown sugar essentially does the same thing as regular table sugar does. In fact, brown sugar is white sugar, only with molasses added. The molasses adds a certain color, a little more sweetness and moisture, and a little different taste, but by and large, the brown sugar does the same job as regular sugar in baking.
Yes you can. For a cup of light brown sugar you can use dark brown sugar and granulated sugar. You should use 1/2 cup dark brown and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. This will equal 1 cup light brown sugar.
I tried that once and it came out less sweet than i should have been.
Sucrose (C12H22O11) + 3.5% to 6.5% Molasses
