Hi Rebecca!
Yes, you can use treacle sugar in place of American brown sugar when making Crunchies. Treacle sugar, with its rich, slightly molasses-like flavor, is a great substitute. It’ll add a deeper, caramel-like taste to your Crunchies, which can be quite delightful. Just keep in mind that treacle sugar may be a bit stickier and moister than American brown sugar, so the texture of your Crunchies might be slightly different, but still delicious. Enjoy your baking!

Thanks

Sorry about that Odette. It was a technical issue and has been fixed. Please let me know how the recipe turns out for you:)
