Pioneer Woman's Sweet Potatoes
I'm sure there are numerous variations of this recipe. Pioneer Woman's is very similar to the one my family makes every year for the holidays [Thanksgiving and Christmas]. It's delicious and is often a dessert option for family rather than a side dish. It's super yummy and always gets rave reviews. One recommendation--take the time to roast/bake your own sweet potatoes. Substituting the canned variety really ruins the dish.
Happy eating!

Last bite on earth: Wow...I'll have to think about this one.

I always cut back on the sugar. There is so much natural sugar in the sweet potatoes that is intensified when you bake them. Add to that the brown sugar topping and it's a diabetic's heaven/hell. You can certainly play with the amount of sugar without seriously compromising the flavor.
My two-cents...been making this dish for 20 years!
