  2. Halve the acorn squash, cutting from end to end (at each stem end), then take a melon ball scoop and get the insides with seeds out.
  3. Cut a little off the bottom of the squash so it will lay flat in the pan.
  4. Pour butter and sugar mixture over the top and inside of both halves.
  5. Cover bottom of pan with water, just to keep squash moist and from drying out.
  6. Cook in a 400 degree oven for 45 minutes or until soft.
