This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less brown sugar next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it! The squash was roasted beautifully and the glaze was amazing. I will definitely be making this again.

I tried this recipe last week and it was a total flop. The squash was undercooked and the glaze was too sweet. I won't be making this again.
