While the squash cooks, melt the butter, and stir in the remaining ingredients. Keep the mixture warm until it is needed. Arrange the squash, cut sides up, in the baking dish. Spoon the butter and seasonings equally over the sections. Bake the squash another 15 minutes, until it is very soft. Serve the squash hot.
