Spiced Acorn Squash

To serve 8

4 medium-sized acorn squash
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1/2 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons melted butter (1 quarter-pound stick)
1/2 cup maple syrup
Eight 1/2-inch pieces of bacon
About 2 cups boiling water

Preheat the oven to 350°. Cut each squash in half and with a teaspoon scrape out the seeds and fibers. In a small bowl combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, salt and melted butter, and stir them together thoroughly.

Arrange the squash in a shallow ovenproof baking dish large enough to hold them all comfortably. Spoon an equal amount of the spiced butter mixture into the hollow of each squash and over that pour a teaspoon or so of maple syrup. Top with a piece of bacon. Now add boiling water to the baking dish; the water should be about 1 inch deep. Bake in the middle of the oven for 30 minutes, or until the squash can be easily pierced with the tip of a small, sharp knife. Serve at once.
