Megan- They are pretty decadent. I guess that’s why we only have them once a year! 😉

I always feel like candied weet potatoes should be part of the dessert table. Looks decadent, waistline-busting gooooooooddd!

Tartelette- Yes, this is definitely not diet food. That is why we only make them once a year, even though I could eat them once a week!

Hi SGCC
I just noticed that there is no spices in this recipe such as cinammon, nutmeg etc. Also no flavoring such as vanilla, by using corn syrup in this recipe there is no need for any spices or flavorings, I think corn syrup do have vanilla in it.

Anonymous- You could certainly put spices in this dish if you wanted. I have intentionally left them out because my mom has a serious sensitivity to both cinnamon and nutmeg. They both make her violently ill! I never thought about adding vanilla. If you try it, let me know how it turns out.

This is just like my grandmother used to make and exactly what I was looking from. She’s from the old south, and this was a staple! especiallay at Thanksgiving. The only difference is she never put it in the over except to brown the marshmallows. Made everything on top of the stove in a huge cast-iron skillet! What a memory! Thanks.

Can these be done before Thanksgiving & frozen?

We have been invited to a friend’s house for Thanksgiving and been asked to take care of the sweet potatoes! I was secretly hoping they would ask us so I can try your recipe! I am soooooo excited! Thanks goodness for the simple things in life!

This looks absolutely decadent. I need to make this now!

Have you ever made these ahead? I was thinking of making them up Wednesday, through pouring the syrup over them, then topping them with foil and refrigerating. Then, on Thanksgiving, doing the final baking. Just wondering if you have any experience or thoughts on doing that.

Yes!!!! BAKE them ahead of time and then stick them in before serving until warmed through. My mom made these for years and they taste better a couple of days later. The sauce gets into the sweet potatoes—-yum!!! I love them this way and I’m actually cooking mine right now!

Thanks for another informative blog. Where else may I get that type
of information written in such an ideal means? I have a venture that I’m simply now operating on, and I’ve
been on the look out for such information.

When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four e-mails with the same comment.
Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
Bless you!

I made these for my family and they absolutely loved them! Simply decadent! I did find that I had to bake them for quite a bit longer to get the right gooey consistency, but I think this happened because I had to double the recipe. Thank you!

Step-by-step guides are provided whenever needed so that the detailed information about repairing mechanism could be given to the customers.
That often leaves homeowners, even with a dryer repair manual in hand, at a loss to find out what’s
wrong with their appliance. Oven parts can be easily ordered through the
Internet.

Severely disappointed. Baked and baked until potatoes started to burn and sauce is like thin cough syrup.
