This acorn squash recipe was passed down to me from my grandma, who always served it at Thanksgiving. Now I make it whenever I'm feeling nostalgic. —Rita Addicks, Weimar, Texas

Preheat oven to 350°. Cut squash in half lengthwise; remove and discard seeds. Cut each half crosswise into 1/2-in. slices; discard ends. Arrange squash in a shallow baking pan; cover with foil. Bake until just tender, 25-30 minutes.
Combine sugar and butter; spread over squash. Bake, uncovered, 15-20 minutes longer, basting occasionally.

i made this and also added 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice to the brown sugar & butter mixture and it was delicious. It also made a pretty presentation with the acorn rings.
