Love butternut squash (so nutritious!); hate the mess of prep -- so....when Costco has the packs of butternut squash already cubed and ready to go -- then I'm on the hunt for some great recipes. This one qualifies -- thank you! We loved it!

This was excellent. My 2 year old loved it too, and he is very picky. It will definitely be going into rotation!

This recipe was fantastic! I had bought a thing of cubed butternut squash and was looking for a recipe to use it with. This was perfect. I cubed all the apples and the squash was pre-cubed so it took a little longer to cook (1 hour 10 minutes). Also didn't have mace so substituted 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp cloves and 1/8 tsp nutmeg. We all loved it, even my 3 year old!

So very "fall" tasting. Didn't pack the brown sugar just to lighten up on the sweet and it was just right. Used 1/4t allspice in place of the mace we didn't have on hand. Very well received.

I lightened this a little by using some Brummel and Brown spread instead of butter and did not pack the brown sugar. I used cinnamon and a little nutmeg instead of mace. It was wonderful!

This was great! Believe it or not, it was even better the next day COLD! (It tastes surprisingly close to pumpkin pie when cold.) I spent considerable time peeling the squash and apples, but other than that it was simple. Like others suggested, not having mace, I used a bit of nutmeg and added some cinnamon and vanilla as well. I'll be making this for Thanksgiving and I'm sure I'll get rave reviews.

I've been making this recipe since the early 80's when I cut the recipe out of the local newspaper. It is one of my favorite ways to prepare squash. I think the mace gives it a special flavor.

I have been making this recipe for more years than I care to admit! It is in my Betty Crocker Cookbook I have had since 1976. I always make this for the holiday's dinners. Some of my family think sweet potato's must be covered in marshmellow (yuck!) I use less sugar, depending on the tartness of the apples. No mace, just cinnamon. I have also used curry powder, most yummy and nice mid year change from the cinnamon. Also, I don't melt the butter, I just put pieces of butter on top. Best of all this can be put together the day before, store in fridge and simply let come to room temp before placing in the oven. Even the kids will eat it with the apples. Enjoy-
