Cookies – use to replace beet sugar syrup for cookies

cookiessubstitutions

I'm making cookies that call for beet sugar syrup but I don't think it's available in my country. What can I use in substitute for it?

Best Answer

My first reaction was to think that beet sugar syrup was just simple syrup, since beet sugar is just regular sugar, but I looked around and discovered that I was wrong.

The reviewers on Amazon likened the flavor to that of raisins, and suggest molasses, AKA treacle (not blackstrap molasses, use a lighter variety), as the best substitute. If the molasses flavor seems a bit strong, try mixing it with a bit of corn syrup, preferably dark corn syrup.
