My mom has been making this since I was a kid. The only thing she adds is a slice of bacon for each squash half. The salty-smokey flavor of the bacon gives a great kick to the super sweet dish. Trust me, if you don't mind eating meat it's a GREAT addition.

Very good! I used a cinnamon sugar mixture after making another recipe for dessert as well as the brown sugar. It was so good. My 5 year old gobbled it up. We wish we would have put more of the sweet mixture on top, even though that makes it a little less healthy. Will make this often.

This was so good! First time we have had acorn squash but it won't be the last! I read the reviews and cut a lot of the steps out and just cooked them about 1 hour with the butter/sugar mixture. Added nutmeg/cinnamon and topped with pecons when done! Wonderful!! Thank you!

Delicious! I was short on time so I put the halves in the microwave for 10 minutes and baked at 350 for 40 minutes.

This is how we've cooked squash in my family for over 50 years, but we do add a tsp of vanilla along with the butter and brown sugar before we bake it. Then when it is done, we sprinkle a dash of nutmeg over the squash. It looks beautiful and tastes delicious!

This was a tasty way to try a new fall vegetable. Probably something I would only have once or twice a season, but I'm glad I tried it (and my husband even ate it, who is a picky veggie eater). Here are the changes I made based on other reviews/recipes: Added about 1/4 cup of water to the bottom of a glass pan (select a pan that is a nice fit for your acorn), cut the acorn in half and then cut off a small piece of the bottom so they would sit level. Filled their cavities with the recommended butter and brown sugar, but then also added a few dashes of nutmeg and cinnamon. Cooked them open faced in the oven for 45 minutes. When I pulled them out, I sprinkled chopped pecans inside. In case you've never tried these before - the idea then is to use a spoon to mix the veg. flesh with the sugar/butter mixture.

i took the quick cook advice of another reviewer, 5 minutes in the microwave and then 20 in the oven. Perfect. My husband said he would eat it again tomorrow night... and he has never been a squash fan!

I zapped it in the microwave and then put it in the oven. Very tasty although it was very sweet, so I would serve it with some not so sweet foods.

Don't be afraid to try this in the microwave. Place both halves in a shallow dish, cover tightly with saran wrap and microwave on high 6-8 minutes. Turns out just fine without heating up the house.

I love this recipe! I took the advice of some other reviewers and tried using the microwave. I have to say that squash roasted in the oven tastes sooooo much better... I guess I like that slow roasted flavor the oven gives the squash, sort of carmelizes the sugars more I guess.

Yum! My husband had never had acorn squash before and was a bit skeptical, but we both loved this. Maybe our squash was larger than average, but we decided it could've used a touch more butter and sugar-maybe fill the hollow all the way.
