This is an old recipe from one of our church cookbooks dated 1954. I remember the lady who contributed this recipe to the cookbook, Nettie Arnsbarger. She was a good cook! And my Dad's sister's mother-in-law. This dish is one my Mom used from that cookbook. Its great with Thanksgiving dinner or anytime you crave some good butternut squash. Buttery, yummy, crunchy, and sweet..... Yumm......
