Ingredients:

  • 6 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

Directions:

  1. Cut the squash in half. It can be kinda hard, so if you can can't do it, place it in the microwave for about 1 minute and it should soften up enough to cut it.
  2. Clean out the seeds/yucky stuff and throw it away.
  3. Divide the ingredients between the two halves and place them inside the dips(You don't even need to melt the butter).
  4. Place in a shallow baking dish with about 1 inch of water and cook for 30 minutes,(basting the edges every 10 minutes) until the squash is soft and moist.
  5. Eat the squash with a spoon using the shell of the squash as your dish!
  6. It's smart to serve each half in a bowl, since they can leak a bit while eating them.
