Ever pull out your brown sugar and find it to be hard as a rock? I usually end up tossing it and assuming it's no longer good. But, there is indeed a way to keep it soft!
Just throw a piece of bread into your bag of brown sugar. It softens it right up! And for some way-over-my-head, scientific reason, the slice of bread will not mold. So technically you could keep it there indefinitely, although that just seems a little gross. I'd recommend switching it out every so often.
So don't throw that brown sugar away - it can be saved!

I've saved brown sugar many times. Another way is to put a cut piece of apple or a damp paper towel into a closed container with the bag of brown sugar that's open (but not touching the wet towel or apple). It will soften in hours, or overnight.

Had these last year at a friends Christmas party. Wow! I was literally hovering over it & I wasn't sharing! These are absolutely addicting.
