Broiled Acorn Squash...

1 acorn squash, halved and seeded
Salt and pepper to taste
4 tbsp. butter, divided use
4 tbsp. brown sugar, divided use

In a microwave safe casserole dish pour enough water to reach 1 1/2 inches in depth. Place the squash halves cut side down in the water, and pierce the skin with a fork a few times. Microwave on high for 15 to 20 minutes. Drain.

Sprinkle each half with salt and pepper to taste. Place two tablespoons butter and two tablespoons brown sugar in each half.

Broil 5 minutes, or until butter is melted. Mix the melted butter and sugar into the flesh, and serve.
