Just last week I read in a cooking magazine (e.g., Cooking Light, Food &
Wine, Cook's Country, Cook's Illustrated, or Cuisine at Home) that
keeping a marshmallow or two in with the brown sugar will keep it from
bricking or getting clumpy. My guess is it works and might be a
preferable alternative to a slice of bread ;-)
