Works like a charm! <br />I think it would add a slightly darker flavor in this recipe, but in the video of Thomas Keller baking these on Today show, he also said that by creaming the sugar and butter with the molasses, that it enhances the texture of the cookies. Whatever it does, it worked because I loved this recipe! :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398447322556987174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5189822412273106888.post-4285911742409984292011-07-09T08:40:10.828-04:002011-07-09T08:40:10.828-04:00I haven't tried that particular method/recipe ...I haven't tried that particular method/recipe before, but I'm guessing that extra tablespoon of molasses just makes the dark brown sugar flavor a bit "darker". I live overseas and can't get brown sugar where I live, so I have to make my own by mixing molasses (imported by me :-)) into white sugar. So I would think that adding more molasses would just make a darker brown sugar.Sarah DeSalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14648711711757596328noreply@blogger.com
