The truth is that at home you can make many things that are commercially available. Some, in fact, are so easy to make that you do not even think about it.
For example, you want to use brown sugar, but you're done? Instead of going to the supermarket, which is a coronavirus, it is also a pointless move, you can make it yourself at home, as long as you have white sugar and a little molasses.
Here's how to make it:
You'll need
1 cup white sugar
1 tbsp. molasses
Implementation
In a blender, beat the sugar with the molasses until the latter is fully incorporated.
Alternatively, if you do not have a blender, you can throw the sugar and molasses in a bowl and beat until smooth. This will take you a little longer.
If you want the brown sugar to come out darker, add 2 tbsp. molasses. In general, keep in mind that the ratio is: 1 cup sugar / 1 tbsp. molasses.
