I searched online and all I could find was substituting white for brown, here's what I found:
If it is the molasses that you resent, you can simply use white sugar in place of brown. But pure white sugar essentially has no flavor other than sweetness, so if you use it in place of brown sugar, what you're making will have less and possibly significantly less flavor. Brown sugar also adds more moisture to a dish than white, so, depending on what you're making, the result may also be drier.
So just think of it the opposite. I think it may make the cookies softer... which may or may not be a good thing. If you try it out, let us know
