Can I sub this in cookies?

I want to make oatmeal cookies but I don't have white sugar all I have is organic raw cane sugar. Can I use it instead? It's not as sweet as white so maybe if I add a little more brown sugar it will make it a tad sweeter? WDYT?

you should be able to sub it. I cannot see why not. I'd be careful w/ the brown sugar, you don't want them to be TOO sweet!

i stopped using white sugar in all my baked goods. they all turn out fantastic. as in, people all over the NYC tri-state area rave about them

I don't make adjustments for brown sugar usually, though if the recipe calls for exactly half white and half brown, I may use all cane sugar instead, depending on the recipe. sometimes you want more of the molasses flavor to come through.

I use raw sugar instead of white for all my baking and it works just fine.
