How To Measure Brown Sugar
Sugar is a spreading agent in baked goods. It’s important to know how to measure it properly to have success. Follow my tips for this simple task.
The Technique
When preparing baking recipes that call for brown sugar, it’s important to get an accurate measurement. Be certain to pack it tightly in the measuring cup & level with a knife, if necessary. Once you have the proper amount, add it as is to the recipes or crumble through your fingers to break it up to ensure the proper blending takes place.
