Excellent! First time I've. Made yams and my family loved them and best. Of all they were very easy to make. Thanks.

I've made this recipe for the last 2 years and everyone raves about it. So this year, I am making double so we can get some leftovers out of it. Don't cut the yams/sweet potatoes smaller than suggested or they break down even smaller when cooking as well as when you stir them.
For my personal taste, I do not put as much sugar and butter as indicated and I add a pinch or two pumpkin pie spice since it has cinnamon and nutmeg already in it. Enjoy!
