This was good, but I think it was too sweet. Next time I will probably cut down on the sugar and then when the yams are warming, cook them through and then mash them. The sweet casserole was a bit much for me, but I am excited to tweak it to my tastes!

This turned out great! I usually don't experiment for a large crowd, but this was worth it. I did cut down on the sugar as some suggested, but I think I would also enjoy it with the amount called for in the recipe.

Absolute heaven. I prepared these ahead of time for Thanksgiving dinner and pop them in the oven for about 35 minutes before dinner. I added a few changes with a tsp of vanilla and 1/2 tsp of nutmeg and cinnamon. It was almost like eating dessert. This will be repeated for all our holiday gatherings.
