How do I soften brown sugar?

Brown Sugar

To soften a hardened box of brown sugar, a good cooking tip is to simply place the opened box in the microwave along with 1 cup of hot water. Microwave on high for about 2 minutes for each 1/2 lb. If you don't have a microwave, place a piece of white bread in with hardened brown sugar to help soften it.
