Don't save these sweet potatoes for just the holidays. These were really good and very easy! I added marshmellows and extra cinnamon. We will be having these again and again.

These were wonderful! Based on other reviews I used a little less butter to prevent the sauce from being too runny. I also added marshmallows and pecans.

Made this for Thanksgiving and it was a big hit with everybody, even people who didn't like sweet potatoes. I did double the sauce recipe since I just filled and 8x8 cassarole dish with the potatoes and needed enough sauce to cover. Very yummy.

I made this for Thanksgiving dinner this year. The sauce is very good, the cinnamon really complements the maple/brown sugar flavor. I'm seriously thinking of just keeping the sauce ingredients on hand to have as a topping for French toast or waffles!
