Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425˚. Brush a 24-cup mini-muffin pan (preferably nonstick) with olive oil. Evenly sprinkle the sugar on the bottom of each cup. Unfold the puff pastry on a work surface and cut into 24 equal squares with a sharp knife.
- Toss the squash with the olive oil, rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl. Place 1 piece in each muffin cup (it's OK if some of the squash pieces extend above the top of the cups). Press about 1/2 teaspoon cheese on top of each squash cube. Cover each with a piece of puff pastry, tucking the edges into the muffin cups.
- Bake until the pastry is golden and puffed, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then remove from the pan. Serve squash-side up.

Steps:
- Put a baking sheet on the middle oven rack and preheat to 375 degrees F. Toss the squash with the melted butter, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; spread in a single layer on the hot baking sheet. Roast until just tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the shallot and roast until softened, about 5 minutes. Let the squash cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet.
- Meanwhile, place the phyllo shells on another baking sheet. Bake until crisp, about 5 minutes. Mix the cream cheese and mayonnaise in a medium bowl.
- Fill each phyllo shell with a teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture. Top with a few cubes roasted squash and sprinkle with the smoked cheddar and thyme. Return to the oven and bake until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

JEAN-GEORGES VONGERICHTEN'S SQUASH ON TOAST
This appetizer takes a little effort, but it rewards with layers of rich fall flavor and texture. You'll roast a cut squash and confit onion slices with maple syrup and apple cider vinegar. Veteran cooks will immediately get the idea: Cook the onions awhile, until they're dark and soft, then add the two liquids and continue to cook until they're jammy. The process could take as long as an hour, depending on the heat, your attentiveness and the water content of the onions. But it isn't difficult. Do not forget the mint; it's not the same without it.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 450. Combine the squash, 1/4 cup olive oil, chile flakes and 2 teaspoons of salt in a bowl and toss well. Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet and cook, stirring every few minutes, until tender and slightly colored, about 15 minutes or a little longer. Remove from the oven.
- Meanwhile, heat another 1/4 cup olive oil over medium-high heat, add the onions and remaining teaspoon salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are well softened and darkening, at least 15 minutes. Add the vinegar and syrup, stir and reduce until syrupy and broken down, again at least 15 minutes or so; the mixture should be jammy.
- Combine squash and onions in a bowl and smash with a fork until combined. Taste for seasoning.
- Add the remaining oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add bread and cook until just golden on both sides, less than 10 minutes total; drain on paper towels. Spread cheese on toasts, then top with the squash-onion mixture. Sprinkle with coarse salt and garnish with mint.
