Cinnamon Brown Sugar Acorn Squash (Ayote En Miel)

1. 1

   Cut squash in half and clean out interior (take out all the seeds and stringy part). Cut each half in quarters (4 pieces).

2. 2

   In a medium saucepan on medium heat, combine sugar, cinnamon, water and squash. Arrange the squash (skin down) in the sauce pan in a way that allows all the squash to be almost covered in water.

3. 3

   Cook on medium heat for about 2 hours, cheking on the squash every 30-45 mins making sure that it is not running out of water. Towards the end the sauce should be a light syrup. Let the squash cool and the syrup thicken for about 10-15 mins before serving. Serve with Vanilla ice cream or whip cream.
