Love this soup!! Trying to eat healthy, so I didn't use any cream, milk or sweetener of any sort and it still tasted great. I also added an acorn squash and steamed both before sauteeing. I used less than a quart of broth. If you feel it needs sweetening, I would add real maple syrup.

Very tasty and nice to make because the ingredient list and ingredient prep was not too lengthy.

This soup was fantastic. I'm not sure how much my squash weighed, but I think it was less than what this recipe called for. I halved, seeded, and placed my squash half side down in a pan with nonstick spray, and baked on 375 for about 40-45 minutes. This is so much easier than peeling and cutting it raw. The consistancy will be mushier and moist, so when its in the pan it will not brown. I also slow cooked this recipe because I fell in love with the smell! When it came to adding the broth, I HIGHLY recommend that you slowly add this ingredient because depending on the size of your squash, this much broth may be the reason some of your soups came out watery. I would add it until its like a chunky applesauce. Then, while blending, add some cream and pulse your blender until it resembles traditional applesauce. I then put the soup back into the pan on a low simmer and chopped up apples, paper thin, and added them. I simmered this, allowing the apples to soften and absorb the flavor. If you are going to add apples, I advise you to add them after you puree, the apple pieces really finish off this dish. Again, fantastic!

Simple and delicious. Perfect lunch to come back to after a walk on a crisp fall weekend. I was brave a used as much spice as was suggested and it wasn't overpowering, even for the kids, but I might tone things down next time. The only change was to use water instead of stock, it still tastes great.

Delish! Since roasting the squash (cut side down, 400 degrees, 45 mins) helps keep in the nutrients, i roasted the squash, then followed the recipe exactly. It was incredible.

This was delicious, even though I cheated a little. I used butternut squash that I had roasted and frozen a few days ago. Also, I roasted the onions and garlic (2 whole cloves) in olive oil, salt, and pepper on 375 for about 30 minutes. Then, I discarded the garlic cloves, melted the butter in the pan, and added the defrosted squash and roasted onions to the pan...Mmmmm, mmmmm. I used ground cloves and didn't find it too overpowering. Also, I only used about 1/8 cup or so of heavy cream (all I had left in the container) and I don't think it needed much more than this, anyway. I also tossed in a little extra sugar, brown and white, because I think it brings out the flavor of the butternut squash so, so well. Thanks for sharing this one!

I didn't care for this soup. I think maybe it was too heavy on the cloves. It was pretty runny, even though I followed other reviewers' advice by only adding a touch of milk. I probably would not make this one again.

This was fantastic! I made it with a few variations though. I substituted fat free 1/2 and 1/2 for the regular, and added four tablespoons of butter instead of one to make it richer. Louisiana Cajun spice (just a 1/2 tblsp) and a dash of nutmeg made it delish!!!

I tried to like this, but I really hated the texture of the puree. I thought it had a really odd flavor, and ended up throwing most of the pot away. Maybe it's just personal preference, but I didn't care for it.

I was really disappointed in this soup. I followed the directions exactly. My family thought the flavors together were strange and that it was a 3 star instead of a 5 star recipe.

This was a big hit with husband. There are only two of us so I only used one 14 oz can of chicken broth and about a cup of half and half. I also added about 2-3 teaspoons of brown sugar to sweeten it up a bit.

This was the best butternut squash soup I have ever had! It took me forever to make (especially the peeling of the squash). I left out the ginger and I used half of a chili pepper instead of cayenne. I also threw in whole cloves.

I just made this soup tonight, mainly to use up the last of the butternut squash from my garden. It is delicious and a perfect nosh for a cold, late autumn evening. Not at all difficult to make and a goes well with all that leftover turkey!

This soup is amazing, I am 13 and i decided to cook for the holidays since i love to cook, my parents loved it so much they are adding it to our annual thanksgiving meal menu. I would not suggest adding milk, it's a little watered down im sure, i did not add milk... and it looks appetizing too! it was simple, it's healthy, spicy!! and very delicious, i would suggest this soup for anyone with a craving for holiday food or just wants to make something simple, inexpensive and VERY luxurious. Thank you for the recipe!!!!!

I had a similar soup at the Princeville resort in Kauai and decided I was going to figure out how to make it. I followed the directions except used heavy cream in place of the half-and-half (may as well go all out), added about 1 tsp of curry, and added blue cheese on top as a garnish. WOW!!! We gave it 10 stars!!!!
