Light Brown Sugar Recipes

BROWN SUGAR FUDGE

Steps:

• Butter an 8x8 inch baking dish and set aside.
• In a large saucepan, over medium heat, combine the cream, brown sugar, and salt.
• Bring to a boil, stirring often, and continue boiling until the candy comes to the soft ball stage.
• If you're using a candy thermometer, this is between 234-240 degrees F (112.2-115.6 degrees C). If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can drop a teaspoon of the candy into very cold water - it will form a soft ball which flattens on removal from the water when it has reached this stage.
• The fudge will need to boil for 10-15 minutes to reach the soft ball stage.
• Once the mixture has reached the right temperature, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. It will bubble up a bit so be careful.
• With an electric mixer, on low speed, beat the fudge for 4-6 minutes, or until it has thickened and is smooth and creamy. The longer you beat it, the thicker it will be, so don't beat for too long if you want soft fudge, beat just until it has thickened (about 4 minutes).
• Pour the fudge into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Let it cool completely and then cut it into squares.
• Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for one to two weeks, or freeze it for up to 3 months.

LIGHT OR DARK BROWN SUGAR

Steps:

• Combine sugar and molasses in a mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer on medium speed, mixing until molasses is completely incorporated.
• Store in an airtight container.

BROWN-SUGAR ICING

Steps:

• Combine brown sugar, milk, and butter in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the butter has melted and sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat, and whisk in vanilla and confectioners' sugar. If the icing is too thick to drizzle, stir in a little more milk. If it is too thin, add a little more confectioners' sugar. Let cool slightly before using.

• Bring the sugar to a boil and stop stirring. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cook until the sugar reaches 236°F. Test using the soft ball method by adding some of the candy mixture to a cup of cold water. If a soft candy ball forms then the fudge is cooked.
• Remove from heat and let cool to 110F. Once cooled add the vanilla and quickly beat with a wooden spoon until the fudge becomes smooth, lighter in colour and loses it shininess to a matte texture.
• Pour the fudge quickly into an 8" X 8" glass dish lined with parchment paper. Push the fudge into the corners of the pan with the wooden spoon or spatula and smooth off the top. Let cool completely for about 1 hour and then cut into squares.
