• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2-3 tsp pumpkin pie spice
• 1/2 stick unsalted butter

• 2 Cut squashes in half and scoop out seeds.
• 3 Place squashes cut side down in a baking dish filled to about 1/2" of water.

• 6 Add all remaining ingredients, and puree using an immersion blender.
• 7 NOTE: you can also use a blender or food processor - which may require this to be done in batches.
