Notes
Soak sugar saver in water for about 20 minutes, then dry the surface before placing in brown sugar. When dry, re-soak and use it again and again.
I suggest using unsulphured molasses for this recipe. Blackstrap molasses is more bitter in flavor.
The only difference between light and dark brown sugar is the amount of molasses used; dark brown sugar contains twice the amount of molasses.
