Easy Recipe! I made these for Thanksgiving and they came out perfect. Very easy to make. I can't wait to make them again for Christmas. I used 1 stick of butter and added a splash of vanilla.

Easiest sweet potatoes and they taste great! I add some pumpkin pie spice just to add another layer of flavor.

So simple, even my fiance can make it; so tasty, it's *requested* for Thanksgiving, by our families! We use about a 1/3 the sugar, though. :b

The yams are sweet and slightly citrusy on their own; this recipe brings out their yammy goodness.
