Ingredients

  • 1 hard brown sugar

Different Options:

  • 1 slice bread (white bread works great)
  • 1 sliced apple
  • 1 clay tile (for brown sugar softening)

Instructions

To Soften Brown Sugar:

  • Add the brown sugar to a large bowl (or if your brown sugar is stored in a big bin, you can just add the things to that) and place the apple or bread right on top. Wrap it tightly with plastic wrap and let it sit for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
  • When you wake up, you can unwrap the bowl and you'll be met with soft brown sugar.
