another OT ?

somewhere I read how to make brown sugar with molasses, but that is all I
remember, do any of you have a clue or am I losing it? Lee

First, why on earth would you want to.

Second, if I remember right from a very smelly visit to a sugar mill,
molasses is a by product of sugar production. If thats the case, molasses
would be left over after the sugar was made.

I want to make cookies and am out of brown sugar, and DH is on his way to
Chicago to visit his mother before her surgery tomorrow so I have no way to
get to the store, and you are correct, it is a by product, I am trying to
figure out if A. I can do it, and B if the senior moment I appear to be
having is a real or imagined memory I am recalling incorrectly, Lee

Most commercially available brown sugar is nothing more than regular
sugar mixed with molasses.

I did a quick search (molasses make brown sugar) and found out:
You need ordinary white granulated sugar and molasses. The recommended
amounts I saw used were 1 cup of sugar and 1-2 tablespoons of molasses
stirred together evenly (with a fork, but use whatever you want). Amount
of molasses depends on how dark brown sugar you want.
