If you only have dark brown sugar, try using only ¼ cup and mix it with ¼ cup of white sugar. I remember that shortly after I found this recipe and made it at home and loved it, I went to Mom’s house and, anxious to show off the recipe and I made it at her place, but she only had dark brown sugar. I made the recipe with the ½ cup dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar and did not like it at all. Everyone was very polite and said it was good, but I thought it was awful. I was mortified! Here I was trying to show off my cooking skills and it came out badly!
