You can use all white sugar in the following recipe, you will just get a crisper and lighter colored cookie because the brown sugar helps to make them soft and chewy and gives them their brown coloring. If you have any molasses, you can add a few tablespoons to 3/4 cup of white sugar and you will get the equivalent to brown sugar in both flavor and texture.
