Did you know making your own brown sugar is incredibly SIMPLE to do? All it takes is 2 ingredients and it's so easy that you can throw it together just before you use it! Never have dried out brown sugar again! I love the fact I can make it organic and control the flavor. Different kinds of molasses will produce slightly different flavors. You can even use 100% Pure Maple Syrup or even honey if you want to get totally adventurous. (These are actually healthier choices because molasses is a byproduct of the refinement process of sugar.) Whatever you choose to use, you'll have your own homemade brown sugar in less than 5 minutes! Brown Sugar Adapted by jalene Yields 1 cup Ingredients:

Let me just start out by saying I'm no Stir-Fry expert but I love to eat it! There's actually so many different combinations you can do but we just had this one for dinner so I thought I'd share.
