Homemade brown sugar will not be on my list of Emergency Ingredients — it will be a staple in my pantry now. No more expensive, tasteless brown sugar for me!
Brown Sugar = 1 cup white sugar + 2 Tablespoons Molasses. Stir together with a fork until completely combined.

This amount will give you 1 cup packed brown sugar.

Look at the comparison of light brown sugar versus the homemade brown sugar. No comparison!

With the sugar and molasses I used, the cost is equal to 65 cents per pound. That’s crazy! Why buy tasteless light brown sugar, I’m not even talking dark brown sugar, for twice that?!?!
