Well, I need 6 extra large eggs but somehow, PU's bought medium, although we always buy extra large; figure. The recipe calls for whipped egg whites, should I just add one more white?

And I have 3 cups of brown sugar and I need 4.5. A box of brown sugar only comes with 2.75 cups of brown. . .figure. I'm just going to add regular granulated sugar to make up (1.5 cups). Getting myself into trouble?

I think the egg white adding would work, but I am not to sure about subbing regular sugar for brown sugar. I think it is going to taste funny and probably not cook correctly, depending on what you are making.

I'm not substituting all the brown sugar with the granulated. It's 3 cups brown with 1.5 white.

Brown sugar is nothing but granulated sugar and molassous (sp) so you could make your own. icon_smile.gif

Isn't there a measurement for egg whites? Like if you were using the egg whites from a carton it would say 1/4 cup or whatever is one egg? Not sure where to find that info...

The cake turned out perfectly look-wise. I'm sure it came out good taste-wise too, but we won't find out until Saturday. icon_surprised.gif I can usually tell from the smell. . . icon_lol.gif
