Butternut Squash Soup

Easiest and most delicious soup!
My aunt always makes this soup for Thanksgiving.
I altered the recipe and didn't peel the skin, which
made this soup a whole lot quicker and easier to make.
No picture--Zack and I ate this batch so fast!

1 medium butternut squash - cut into smallish pieces
2 tbs butter or margarine
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
salt and pepper to taste
2 1/2 to 3 cups water

If desired:
soy milk


Boil water. Add squash. Turn heat down and simmer
until squash is tender, usually 30-45 minutes.
Take the contents of the pot and pour it all into a blender.
Pour back into pot and add butter and syrup.
Add milk if you wish.
Simmer for a couple more minutes.
Add salt and pepper to taste and serve!
