Candied Acorn Squash

Ingredients
1 acorn squash, halved and seeded
1/4 cup butter, divided
1/4 cup packed brown sugar, divided

Directions





Place both halves of the squash cut side up on a microwave-safe plate
or dish. Put 2 tablespoons of butter, and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
into the cavity of each half.

Cook for 8 to 10 minutes in the microwave on full power. Rotate the squash a couple of times to ensure even cooking. When the flesh is
soft, scoop out soft flesh with the sugar and butter, and place it in a
bowl. Mash it a little to blend the ingredients. Serve in a bowl, or your could even serve it in the shells.
