Brown sugar a common ingredient in baking and cooking and is one of the easiest things to MOO.  You can't beat homemade brown sugar for freshness and economy.  At around a third the price of the bought product cost alone would be a good reason to make it.
 
You will need:
1kg white sugar
2 tbsp molasses (in the baking and health food aisles of supermarkets). 
 
Step 1
Put the sugar into a large bowl and pour the molasses over the top.

Step 2
Using a fork stir the molasses through the sugar until it is all combined and resembles commercial brown sugar.  This can take a while so be patient.  Alternatively, put it into the bowl of a stand mixer, and using the whisk attachment, stir at low speed until the sugar and molasses are thoroughly combined.

Notes:

• If you like dark brown sugar, or your recipe calls for it, adds another tablespoon of molasses.
• Store the brown sugar in an airtight container in the fridge to stop it going lumpy.
• Use as in your cooking any time brown sugar is required.
