What’s the Difference Between Dark Brown Sugar and Regular Brown Sugar?

Dark brown sugar contains more molasses than the other versions of brown sugar. It really doesn’t matter which one you use, but the dark brown sugar will add a bit more of a bolder flavor.

Don’t toss the butternut seeds!  Roast them!
