Buttercup squash recipes?

[Michael Lloyd]

One of the varieties of squash that I planted is Buttercup. I had no idea what it was but it sounded good 

Now that I have some I have no idea what to do with them. Anyone have a good recipe for a squash that looks like a little watermelon?

Fill the hollow with butter and brown sugar and bake.  Yum.

Mike, it makes a great pie similar to pumpkin or sweet potatoe, or after baking it, scoop out the pulp, mash it up and use it like a sweet potatoe cassarole.

Let them stay in the plant until the skin get tuff, where your nail wont go into it, they store for a long time, and as the others say, they eat mighty Fine
