Place it in a shallow baking pan with 1 inch of water and bake for about 30-35 minutes, until soft. When soft, scoop flesh from skin and mash with a fork or potato masher and in a medium saucepan, sauté onion with margarine. Add flour when onions soften. Add bouillon cubes stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil. Lower heat and gradually stir in milk and mashed squash. Add seasonings. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
