Golden Acorn Squash With Raspberries

Preheat the oven to 350F. Cut a thin slice off the bottom of the squash and stand them upright in a baking dish. Fill each half with 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. If you are using frozen raspberries, bake the squash for 35 minutes, add 1/4 cup berries to each half, and bake for another 10 minutes. Fresh raspberries can be added after squash have baked for 40 minutes. Cook them for another 5 minutes.

Microwave Instructions: Cut each squash in half and scoop out the centers. Put the squash, cut side down, in a shallow baking dish and add 3 tablespoons water. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and bake on High for about 12 minutes, or until they are tender. Cut a thin slice off the bottom of each half and turn over. Stand the squash upright in the baking dish and fill each half with 1 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1/4 cup raspberries. Microwave on High for 4 more minutes for frozen raspberries and 3 more minutes for fresh berries.
