Butternut Squash Soup Shots With Candied Bacon, This soup is served as a fancy appetizer in a shot glass with half a piece of candied bacon, but you could serve it in a bowl and crumble the bacon as a garnish, if desired , Served this at a party in demitasse cups Everyone loved it I changed the recipe a little bit First I baked the butternut squash in the oven before scoped it out (Cut it in half, take out seeds, rub cut side with olive oil, place on sheet cut side down, cook in 375 degree oven until soft enough to scope out–took me 45 mins ) If you like the bite of curry, the amount is good I skipped the maple syrup (by mistake) It was still good used pumpkin seeds instead of bacon , Served this at a party in demitasse cups Everyone loved it I changed the recipe a little bit First I baked the butternut squash in the oven before scoped it out (Cut it in half, take out seeds, rub cut side with olive oil, place on sheet cut side down, cook in 375 degree oven until soft enough to scope out–took me 45 mins ) If you like the bite of curry, the amount is good I skipped the maple syrup (by mistake) It was still good used pumpkin seeds instead of bacon
