This recipe has some potential but it lacked the overall flavor and richness we have come to know and love from sweet potato and marshmallows...

I found this to have way too much liquid and that all the marshmallow to disintegrate into the dish. If I cut down on the water and add a touch of maple syrup to it it seemed to do the trick.

I also cooked the potatoes in the full amount of liquid and drained some of it off just before placing the marshmallows on top to brown...
all in all, it was a little more work than necessary but everyone enjoyed the final product.

Come on Sunny, you're a southern girl. This recipe left much to be desired. The brown sugar glaze can be added directly onto the par-cooked potatoes rather than melting down spices on stove-top.There were not enough spices. I had to just go back to Mama's "candied yam" recipe to spruce up the taste. The dish needed much more spice and butter than the recipe called for, and half the water. Also, my marshmallows nearly disappeared, and I did use the amount in the recipe.The only thing that saved this from being a disaster is that it's hard too really mess up sweet potatoes. Oh yeah, the lemon wedges did add some good flavor. This was my first time trying one of Sunny's recipes and I'm a pretty good cook who comes from a family of great cooks. I should have not strayed from my own tradition, but I was trying to save time. Sorry girl, this one is not a keeper.

I think this recipe was very good and the person who didn;t like it said it only had water and brown sugar i guess they forgot the butter which gives it that rich flavor they were lacking

I was very dissapointed with this recipe. I could not believe that the brown sugar and water was the only thing in the sauce and it lacked a rich flavor, needed spices but it can be saved. Use half the amount of water add cinnimon, vanilla and nutmeg.
