Perfect for an everyday meal, yet always feels unique because we don't eat acorn squash every day! I love the suggestions for microwaving. Saves a lot of time with the same result! One modification - I add a sprinkling of rosemary to the butter/brown sugar mixture. Gives a nice contrast to the sweetness. I always have dry rosemary on hand, but I bet fresh is even better.

I hadn't tried squash in about 20 years so I thought it was about time I give it another try. It was good! I baked mine differently: placed, cut-side up, in a small baking dish with 1/2 inch of water in the bottom and covered it with foil. It was perfectly baked after 60 minutes. I had to salt the heck of it too.

This was my first time eating acorn squash and I have to say that it was quite enjoyable. Very simple and very inexpensive to make. It was my husband's first time eating acorn squash as well and he absolutely loved it! Thanks for the recipe :-)

Made this prior to Thanksgiving, testing items to add to the table. These turned out great! My wife, who doesn't like sweat squash, just loved them! The brown sugar melted with the butter and fused with the squash, the spices toned down the sweetness of the dish beautifully. Presentation was gorgeous! And the smell of them baking was beyond belief! A great way to enjoy Acorns. Will be a permanent addition to our Thanksgiving dinner and special winter occasions!

This is the first time I have had acorn squash. It is wonderful! After reading the reviews, I baked both halves flesh side up, filled with butter and brown sugar, and covered for 30 minutes. Then I removed the foil and cooked 30-40 minutes longer.

I really liked it, my husband did not but he's not a big veggie person. I also put cinnamon on it.

I HATE squash but my husband likes it so I tried this recipe out on him. He loved it but the kids and I almost threw up from the texture. If you like squash then chances are you will like this recipe.

Fabulous! Based on other reviews I added bacon and put the cut side up for 60 minutes at 350 with all the stuff already inside. Even the hubby who doesn't like squash said to make this again!

So simple, yet so AWESOME! I find it hard to make recipes without tweaking, but I made this recipe as written and it was perfect. The smell of the brown sugar and butter when I opened the oven door was intoxicating!

Easy and delicious! It smells and tastes a lot like a Halloween pumpkin. I didn't change a thing, and it was perfect.

This was EXCELLENT! My boyfriend had never had squash before, so I made this and he couldn't get enough. I made it a little differently. I cooked face down in the beginning like the recipe calls for, but then melted butter all over each side & sprinkled cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hearty spoonful of brown sugar on each 1/2. then cooked "meat" side up in oven for 15 min then covered w foil and continued to cook for another 15 min. Came out perfectly!
