Butternut Squash Souffle image

A girlfriend of mine made this for a dinner party years ago and I liked it so much I made it for my own family. It has been requested at every holiday dinner since. I don't like carrots, but the squash really steals the show, so no worries on a "carroty" taste (it alwasys falls just a little so I recommend saving a little topping to fill the little dip :-)
