I am not sure because I have not tried it but I have heard that you can do that by putting it in the microwave, but I would only try maybe 10 seconds at a time to see if it works?

You can also use a cheese grater(smallest grate). I know this won't soften it but it is one solution.

I have put a sliced apple into a sealed container with the brown suger over night and it worked for me.

I was curious so I decided to look it up and I found this site: http://tipnut.com/10-ways-to-soften-hard-brown-sugar/ and it turns out all of the above will work. On this site there are a few more as well. I always used to throw it out but now I can use it. Thanks to all. I never would have looked this up if it wasn't for this question. The site I found is pretty good too. Thanks guys!
