I’m sure this has happened to us all at one point in time. You have everything ready to bake cookies and you reach for your container of brown sugar only to find it hard as a rock. Or worse yet…empty. Maybe you have time to make a quick run to the grocery store to purchase a fresh package of brown sugar, but most of the time you have to save your baking for another day. Why not make your own brown sugar? It’s easy and you most likely have all the ingredients in your pantry.
