How do I prevent sugar cookies from hardening?  

I made the following recipe: 
http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/cda/recipe_print/0,1946,FOOD_9936_25190_PRINT-RECIPE-FULL-PAGE,00.html

I did substitute semisweet chocolate instead of unsweetened, otherwise
I followed the recipe as written.  The cookies tasted great after
cooling for a few minutes, and also later that evening (~4 hrs).  I
placed them in an airtight container.  By the next evening, they were
hard as rock.

How do I prevent these cookies from becoming too hard to eat?

I've heard about putting an apple or bread slice in the
container....I'm looking for additional suggestions.

A ceramic "brown sugar saver" that is soaked in water will keep
cookies moist and soft.

This is the kind of thing I mean:
