It will soften up from the warmth of your hands as you start to work it.

You can also start it out by microwaving it for about 3 seconds, maybe 5 seconds, then check to see if it has softened up. You don't want to soften it too much in the microwave or it will melt or get oily. Take it out and continue softening it with your hands.
