"You run out of brown sugar and decide to use only granulated sugar instead. The cookies come out much thinner than usual. Design a controlled experiment to test your hypothesis *, describing how you would interpret your results. Please limit your response to one paragraph."
My hypothesis is that without the brown sugar would be fewer components (present in brown sugar) that contribute to the cookie growth. Perhaps due to reaction with the baking soda... brown sugar acids releases? How I make a experiment to test this? :(

How about 1 batch made with brown sugar only, another batch with 3/4 brown and 1/4 granulated, another batch with 1/2 and 1/2, another batch with 1/4 brown and 3/4 granulated and a final batch with all granulated. Then compare the cookies.
