Spiced Squash by Bookseller

Given other side dishes, this will probably serve 6 or even 8.

3 pounds butternut squash
4 T butter
1/2 t ground cardamom
1/4 t ground cloves
1/2 t salt
2 T honey
1/4 t freshly ground pepper

Preheat oven to 400. Halve the squash lengthwise, scrape out the seeds, wrap the squash halves loosely in foil, and bake for an hour or till tender. Let cool, then scrape out the flesh and puree in a food processer. Mix in other ingredients. If reheating, either opt for a microwave or stir constantly over medium heat.
