Can I use Brown Sugar instead of Granulated Sugar in my No Bake Cookie Recipe?

Best Answer

In many recipes, brown sugar and granulated sugar can be substituted for each other fairly freely. Keep in mind that brown sugar will add both color and flavor, and it has more moisture. If your recipe has a narrow moisture tolerance, you'll want to decrease the moisture elsewhere. Also, brown sugar tends to be more hygroscopic than granulated, so the product will remain softer over time.
