1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Grease muffin tin (regular size dozen) with butter. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender (I use clean hands) or knives until mixture is like fine crumbs. Beat egg in a medium bowl; stir in squash, peel and milk. Add to flour mixture until just blended.
