The sweetness of the squash can vary, so don't hesitate to adjust the brown sugar to your liking. A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg can add extra warmth. For a vegan version, substitute the butter with olive oil and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Soup will thicken as it sits. Add broth to thin.
