I'm going to simplify this, according to what I have done with it, almost by accident. I microwaved the 1 to 1 1/2 lb squash for about 10 -12 minutes, until soft enough to scoop away from the peel. I added 1/4 cup of butter-type margerine, 1 tsp of salt, 1 generous tsp of black pepper, 1 generous tsp of garlic powder, and a generous tblsp of dark brown sugar. I mashed and mixed this all thoroughly, and served it alongside some really good roast chicken, on the plate. The flavor and taste of the squash was delightful! I have eaten lots of butternut, but never any that was more delicious than this. Maybe I lucked out.
