Loved the recipe and followed the instructions except added a dash of cinnamon on the top when they were done. Left them in 2 pieces and let each person dig out the yummy insides.

YUM! I only had a small acorn squash, so I made half the butter/brown sugar mixture (I personally would use the full amount with a larger squash - seems more like a "treat" dish to me and I have to admit to enjoying the "yummies" in the middle!) and cut the cooking time accordingly. Very good - my 8yo (my adventurous eater) enjoyed the other half with me. Will definitely make it again. Sprinkled with cinnamon before cooking as well. It was fun to eat right out of the skin with the rest of our meal.

This recipe is great! I can't wait to tell my MIL that acorn squash doesn't have to be baked in the oven. I cooked this for 10 minutes with half the butter and brown sugar called for and then when it was done, scooped it out and added Butter Buds and a little more sugar. I cut the calories in half but didn't lose any of the flavor! We both enjoyed this Soo much and I wished I had another one to cook the same night! It's that good :o) Thanks so much for posting this recipe!

I'm not crazy about cooking with the microwave, but this recipe was really delicious. And fast to the table! Buttery and sweet... delicious! It really hit the spot on a cold wintry day.

Can I give this zero stars?? Sorry I hate to be the minority here, but this was just plain discusting. The taste was not good and the texture was horrible. I would not recommend this to anyone. Infact, all of the squash that I prepared went right into the trash. Sorry, no one liked this at our house. I will never try another acorn squash recipe again.

My kids ate this in seconds and asked me to buy again. I got none because they all gobbled it down. Making it tonight for the second time adding pie spices tonight see how that goes. Well kids ate it and asked for more no other explainations needed.

Delicious. After microwaving the squash and adding the butter/sugar, I finished cooking in the oven. I did end up sprinkling a bit of salt to add a bit of a kettle corn taste. Hit the spot.

This is so delicious! My mom used to mkae this all the time and it brought back great memories. This was just as good as I remembered and so much faster in the microwave instead of the oven how she used to do it. My son wasn't too fond of it although he did try a bite, and hubby said it was okay, but he really isn't into sweet things unless they are choc chip cookies.

Yum, and very easy. The first time, I added chopped walnuts. The second time I didn't - and I think I liked it better!

Yum - this is quick and delicious. No need to use all of the butter and sugar as written - it tastes great with about half of each. Be sure to turn during cooking as is written - I've made this twice and the second time forgot to turn it so it cooked a bit unevenly - still tasted good though!

My mom made this regularly during the winter when I was a kid. It was one of my favorites! I use less butter when I make it - less fat that way. The kids like it just as well with about a two teaspoons of butter and a tablespoon of brown sugar in their half of a squash.

This summer my husband introduced me to acorn squash. He said his mom made it alot growing up. I sliced this into 1" sections and covered with 1" of water and cooked for 10 in the microwave. Brushed with butter and sprinkled with brown sugar
