Very good! My husband just loves Squash prepared this way. The kids will eat it this way too (which is a triumph!)

Pretty basic recipe and easy to make. My husband was in heaven, I thought it needed just a little more something for flavor..orange juice, vanilla..I'm not sure. I'll keep experimenting. Thanks.

This is the same basic way I make acorn squash. My recipe uses only 1 tsp brown sugar and doesn't have pepper. It also has you bake the squash cut side down for 35 minutes, flip them over and spoon the sugar/butter mixture over the edges...letting some spill into the cavity, and broil for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. I doubt the end result is much different between the two recipes, so I'm rating this one instead of posting my own.
