I always add some molasses to brown sugar to use in those recipes as well. |

I always > add some molasses to brown sugar to use in those recipes as well. I was thinking about nb's fruitcake recipe. I don't want to buy some sugar I'll never use just to make it, so adding a bit of molasses makes more sense. I like the light color, so I hope added molasses won't change that. -- All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt. |

I use unsulphured molasses, will a spoonful actually affect flavor enough to matter? -- All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt. |
