    More brown sugar to white sugar ratio i think, molasses helps with the chewyness of the cookie. I use 165g of brown sugar with 150g of white sugar and it still comes out chewy after the dough being frozen.

      I just skip the brown sugar entirely. I use all white sugar but with a tablespoon or so of molasses.

      Brown sugar is just white sugar with molasses mixed in. Seems redundant to keep a separate ingredient around when molasses does the trick!

          I like to keep a jar of molasses since it’s so handy. Oatmeal cookies, pumpkin or banana bread, ginger snaps, etc

          Whenever I kept brown sugar, it would always go hard on me.
