I'm no molecular scientist or chemist, but my guess is that the molasses in the brown sugar adds higher moisture content which makes it more dense since when it cooks, there's probably more steam happening in the cookie whereas the white sugar has a lower moisture content so it creates the crunchier texture at the end

I've always used a combination, but the real secret to delectable chocolate chip cookies is browning some of the butter! Adds a unique caramel taste that really brings out good chocolate flavors and frankly, the only downside is how quickly your cookies will be devoured by others if you don't get to them first.
Practically all cookies I make are fully brown sugar based unless the recipe strictly calls for white sugar. I don't really notice the texture difference but I do notice the flavor difference and I honestly think brown sugar gives the cookie a more rich and buttery flavor while still being chewy on the inside and crispy outside
You don't have to follow the recipe though. I use it as a base to get an idea of ingredient ratios for the main parts, like butter flour and sugar. And adjust for personal taste. But everything else I make up on the fly. Bit i agree, brown sugar taste SOO much better! I also use more brown sugar than white.
I actually prefer the almost lighter taste of the white sugar. (I also prefer slightly crisper cookies over denser ones as well, but it also depends on the recipe tbh) If I want a more flavorful cookie, cupcake, etc. what I’ll do is just brown the butter and maybe add some milk powder to give the mixture more of the carmalized milk solids. Then I’ll usually mess around with the ratio, but typically I feel like 50% white and 50% brown is my favorite. That, or I’ll add in a ratio of 50% toasted white sugar (basically white sugar that’s been toasted in the oven, I get this cuz I use sugar as a weight whenever I make tarts or pies) and 50% brown sugar, since the toasted white sugar helps give it a bit more of a carmelized note, while still not having the stronger taste of brown sugar.
I use (for my chocolate chip cookies) 1/4 cup of dark brown, 1/4 cup of light brown, and a 1/4 cup of white sugar. The combination has made the consistency and flavor JUST right. I also cream the butter with the sugar and vanilla, then mix in the flour, then I mix in and egg. Doing it in that order has also helped. Anywho, I've been excit3d because I think I've finally perfected my chocolate chip cookie recipe.
You should also try a small box of vanilla pudding mix. My mom would do that and they were some of the best cookies I've ever had. Just a recommendation on something new to try. 😊

correct me if im wrong,, but considering light brown is inbetween dark and white sugar,, what difference does it make using all three versus just using light brown sugar if its the combination?
@@lucycurrie5925 I understand where you are coming from. I used to think that too. However, I've tried using only light brown sugar, and for some reason the flavor and consistency isn't quite the same as it is with the 3 sugars together. Not sure exactly why, although I'm sure there's a scientific explanation out there somewhere.
I personally wouldn’t do that for my cookies. White mixed with brown sugar gives it the perfect amount of crunch and soft chewy Texture. Just brown sugar is a little to chewy and dense for me.
PSA - sugar is processed from cane juice, and molasses is what you get when you boil down the liquid they extract to make refined sugar. Commercial brown sugar is typically white sugar with molasses added, but it’s the “default state.” all different “types” of cane sugar besides plain white sugar just have different amounts of molasses. “Sugar in the raw” is just turbinado sugar, aka it’s been spun around to remove most but not all of the molasses.
There's depth and slight caramel flavor to the brown one bc of the molasses. For those who were asking about the taste. White kind of isnt comparable lol it just tastes like it's missing something (for chocolate chip cookies specifically). But you decide depending on the texture you want and the type of recipe (white sugar goes well with lighter recipes like fluffy cake, brown is better for dense stuff like maybe pound cake)
I looked this up one time, and if you’re using baking soda, then you need an acid to activate and start the chemical reaction. Without the brown sugar there’s less leavening that happens because the baking soda doesn’t end up reacting. Brown sugar is apparently an acid and actually causes the reaction to happen, and that’s why those cookies don’t spread as much 😄
I tend to use all brown sugar in my chip cookies. I like the softer cookies, and if you underbake them by a few minutes, they really do come out gooey, soft, and become chewy once cooled.
Thank you for mentioning that. I was confused when she said the brown sugar ones weren't chewy. Using brown sugar makes them more chewy when cooled due to the molasses in it. So weird she said the white sugar was chewy and the brown sugar just soft.
Both sugar, browning half your butter and keeping the rest room temp, the type and amount of chocolate used, and freezing the dough all contribute to arguably the best cookie you can make
I make mine with all brown sugar, dark brown if you got it, if i only have light, i add some extra molasses. I love the way they turn out, dense and chewy, and the edges are still crispy. I also brown my butter and age the dough a few days. Actually i use the recipe from "tasty" with a few substitutions
When I learned that American brown sugar was just refined sugar beets and cane molasses, my mind was blown away. I am free now. I just need white sugar and molasses to make anything refined.
Im actually doing a study on leavening agents and why the brown sugar cookie is denser is because the molasses has a slightly more acidic base than the white sugar. Baking soda reacts to acids (if you ever did the baking soda vinegar thing in school) so its much more reactive and creates more air bubbles as it bakes. White sugar on the other hand, is less acidic, and instead melts out like you burned it. This makes the cookies with white sugar wider, but crispier. So, to make sure that your cookies are not too dense or flat. There was actually a study done just lile this where it compared the height, diameter, textures, and colors of a chocolate chip cookie based on the sugar that was used. All of this knowledge is spewed from the research i had to do on leavening agents. I will link the credited source in this comment once I find it. The study used light brown sugar, dark brown sugar, and white sugar in teh chocolate chip study. (I posted this in a thread, too, i just wanted the creator to possibly understand why this result may ne the case)

Good! You are making your cookies correct! It irritates me for some reason that people use just white sugar, which I never knew was a thing because I had always ised brown and white mixed. I thought using just white sugar was JUST for sugar cookies.
When I was younger I always wondered why the cookies I made looked pale and uninteresting compared to the ones made in the bakery nearby. Only when I was 20 did I realise that brown sugar makes such a big difference. There is a bakery in my town that makes these dark brown cookies and I think they put palm sugar and it tastes so much better than brown sugar cookies. The darker the sugar the better and healthier.
Um, you dont know mich about sugar to make that last comment do you? There is no duch thing as healthy sugar. Sugar is sugar no matter the form. The only difference between the sugars is what it does to your glycemic index. Watch How to Cook That on youtube and she goes into a full on explaination about sugar, which I already knew but wanted to prove to someone that their so called healthy sugar wasn't really healthy.

It's not proven to be important. If you notice you tend to feel hungry too soon after eating, and it's a strong feeling you can't brush off, then yeah, you can keep it in mind, but for people who don't suffer with that, it's just fear mongering.
Real brown sugar doesn’t *have* molasses in it. It’s just less processed/refined. That’s why you have different grades of brown sugar with different colour and tastes, it means that they’re in different stages of refining and molasses is only the first one. Now, if in the US they sell white sugar WITH molasses in it, I’d say that that’s a hell of an industry scam and definitely would impact on your health in the long run.
I'm guessing your first paragraph is referring to "turbinado sugar"? Which IS sold as a more natural (blonde) sugar here in the U.S. More expensive & harder to find (I prefer it; it's got body to it). But for the most part, sadly, the second paragraph IS what the standard U.S. sugar companies do. They remove all the molasses first to make the sugar white, then they re-add it back in, in varying amounts, to make different grades of brown sugar. They do it that way to make it more consistent. 😕
@@ZaCloud-Animations___she-her this turbinado sugar (hahaha WHAT A NAME) is a “light demerara” in latin america. It’s okay, but for some recipes it doesn’t really work cause it burns faster and unevenly. Some european countries would also sell it as demerara or simply as sugar cane sugar, mostly bc you can’t really find varieties of it here and they can’t differ the types. Quite impressive for a kind that literally colonised half of the world specifically for producing sugar. Anyway. The US is a whack ass country for doing this hahaha it makes no sense You get the sugarcane > juice it > boil > molasses > and so it goes until turns white. It seems so much more complicated processing EVERYTHING instead of just pricing it accordingly 🤦🏼♀️
When I make cookies, I mostly use browned butter, delicious! Also I pop them in the freezer and bake from frozen, freezing even just in the fridge also helps to stop spreading
Would like to see one more added to this comparison which is using white sugar and molasses in your recipe (separate ingredients, not combined as brown sugar) !
@@LongStoryShortItHitsDifferent oo that’s good. I’d be more interested to see that than what i suggested actually lol cuz i think it’d be the same anyhow. Never experimented with light/dark.
If anyone cares...a new weird but good flavor is when you are making grilled cheese. take and sprinkle a little brown sugar in the middle of sandwich before ya cook it 🤗
Who cares about the color...its all about the texture. Since molasses is in brown sugar does it make the cookie softer...does it make white sugar drier or a harder cookie?
Brown sugar is not the same as RAW sugar, can you please compare with raw sugar vs white sugar as you pretty much never use brown sugar unless the recipe specifies it
I wanted to make chocolate chip cookies with my Mom as a kid and once she seen how much sugar the recipe needed she stopped the whole process. 😂😢 Shut down the kitchen completely.
I used to always get hard buiscits instead of cookies, so i used no white sugar, brown butter, and condensed milk as a substitute for eggs, surprisingly, it was really good! Gooey,lighter in colour, and crispy around the edges, i really recommend.
I sell cookies every week and I’ve never used white sugar I always use brown sugar I think it taste better here’s my cookies recipe 1 cup of butter 1 cup of bread flour 3/4 cup of regular flour 2 tsp of vanilla extract 1tsp of baking soda 1 egg 1 egg yolk and AS MANY CHOCOLATE CHIPS YOUR HEART DESIRES (I normally double it since I sell them makes about 9 Cookies)

Real brown sugar doesn’t *have* molasses in it. It’s just less processed/refined. That’s why you have different grades of brown sugar with different colour and tastes, it means that they’re in different stages of refining and molasses is only the first one.
Now, if in the US they sell white sugar WITH molasses in it, I’d say that that’s a hell of an industry scam and definitely would impact on your health in the long run.
I'm guessing your first paragraph is referring to "turbinado sugar"? Which IS sold as a more natural (blonde) sugar here in the U.S. More expensive & harder to find (I prefer it; it's got body to it).
But for the most part, sadly, the second paragraph IS what the standard U.S. sugar companies do. They remove all the molasses first to make the sugar white, then they re-add it back in, in varying amounts, to make different grades of brown sugar. They do it that way to make it more consistent. 😕
In Australia we call it raw sugar
@@ZaCloud-Animations___she-her this turbinado sugar (hahaha WHAT A NAME) is a “light demerara” in latin america.
It’s okay, but for some recipes it doesn’t really work cause it burns faster and unevenly.
Some european countries would also sell it as demerara or simply as sugar cane sugar, mostly bc you can’t really find varieties of it here and they can’t differ the types. Quite impressive for a kind that literally colonised half of the world specifically for producing sugar. Anyway. The US is a whack ass country for doing this hahaha it makes no sense
You get the sugarcane > juice it > boil > molasses > and so it goes until turns white. It seems so much more complicated processing EVERYTHING instead of just pricing it accordingly 🤦🏼♀️
When I make cookies, I mostly use browned butter, delicious! Also I pop them in the freezer and bake from frozen, freezing even just in the fridge also helps to stop spreading
This is the way.
how long do you freeze it for?
If you check the chemical characteristics of these types of sugar, you'll be terrified what a shit is a white sugar compared to brown sugar 💀💀💀
This is useless. All these cookies are unhealthy. What about testing with sugar replacements.
"I think the biggest factor here was the taste _doesn't explain and starts talking about texture and consistency instead_ "
How does a high quality video have no comments
My thoughts exactly
These are easily the nicest cooked cookies/experiment I’ve seen. Well done
BrownSuger replies- "Oh cuz We black!!"..😂😂😂..I love all three types and thanks for posting.
Did you know brown sugar is just white sugar with molasses added?
Those are some seriously picturesque cookies. I'd have to sample them all until they're gone to be thorough.
When he pans the camera over to the dog and it’s literally sitting there just calm, yet baffled. It’s so great.
as a chinese person i can confirm that all three cookies are way too sweet
1000% correct. Too much.
As a non Chinese person I appreciate your input, will keep in mind 👍
I looked at the stick of butter and got a heart attack immediately 😩
@@bevaughnhenry4983 cookie recipes call for 2 sticks!😂
Me who is Chinese but complained that she should have used chocolate chunks instead of chips: Uh yeah yeah. 😅😅😅
Isn’t this a copy of benjaminthebaker?
Now do dark brown sugar, which is my favorite 🥰
This is the content I need in my life.
Recipe please🙏🏼
Would like to see one more added to this comparison which is using white sugar and molasses in your recipe (separate ingredients, not combined as brown sugar) !
I'd like to see that too. I'd also like to see the difference between using light brown sugar and dark brown sugar or would it be the same?
@@LongStoryShortItHitsDifferent oo that’s good. I’d be more interested to see that than what i suggested actually lol cuz i think it’d be the same anyhow. Never experimented with light/dark.
Both but more brown is the best
I'm jealous, she is not sharing and eating alone😭😭😭😐😐jkjkjk.
What would happen if I used old brown sugar that wasn’t as moist? What do you think would happen?
You can always get the moisture back in there by adding a slice of bread and leaving it for about thirty minutes. Makes all the difference
Swap out granulated sugar for powdered sugar! It makes your cookies super fluffy and delicious
What??? Same measurements? Never heard of that, but I'll try it!😂
@@hubster4477 Yup, same measurements. Let me know how you like the cookies!
If anyone cares...a new weird but good flavor is when you are making grilled cheese. take and sprinkle a little brown sugar in the middle of sandwich before ya cook it 🤗
Who cares about the color...its all about the texture. Since molasses is in brown sugar does it make the cookie softer...does it make white sugar drier or a harder cookie?
how does it taste?
"well, one tasted crispy, and the other tasted chewy."
;_;
Brown sugar is not the same as RAW sugar, can you please compare with raw sugar vs white sugar as you pretty much never use brown sugar unless the recipe specifies it
1960s: racism in human color
2020s: racism in cookies 😂
I wanted to make chocolate chip cookies with my Mom as a kid and once she seen how much sugar the recipe needed she stopped the whole process. 😂😢
Shut down the kitchen completely.
Brown sugar is the best for brownies though, nothings better than a soft wet brownie... God Aloe loves brownie...
Me personally, I think the brown sugar looks best

Guess who my favorite character on Sesame Street is... 😋
White sugar is bleached & stripped of the molasses
I used to always get hard buiscits instead of cookies, so i used no white sugar, brown butter, and condensed milk as a substitute for eggs, surprisingly, it was really good! Gooey,lighter in colour, and crispy around the edges, i really recommend.
Ehm... Actually either sugar is really unhealthy ☝️🤓
All three of those look disgusting you didn’t cook them all the way through
they're like a foundation shade😂
Nigga your cookies look sick bro , they need a trip to the emergency room they bouta pass out
I sell cookies every week and I’ve never used white sugar I always use brown sugar I think it taste better here’s my cookies recipe
1 cup of butter
1 cup of bread flour
3/4 cup of regular flour
2 tsp of vanilla extract
1tsp of baking soda
1 egg
1 egg yolk
and AS MANY CHOCOLATE CHIPS YOUR HEART DESIRES
(I normally double it since I sell them makes about 9 Cookies)
I might have forgotten somthing but please let me know
Who want those right now like I do
👇
Brown sugar My favorite❤
chewy vs crunchy chips ahoy lol which one y’all like better? 🧐
Instant sub, these sort of questions are my jam
I’m hungry how do i eat through the screen
No matter what color of sugar, they are all just cookies in the end
Brown sugar looks so much better, gives the cookie more fluff and structure
What happens if you combine them?! 🤩😋🍪
Color always makes things better 😮
Is there a recipe for the bottom cookie? The half and half
Nope. The "proof" is in the texture.
