I had never really made candied yams before but this was super easy and yummy. However, i saw other comments in where people mentioned adding vanilla extract and cinnamon and that made it better!

I used this recipe in an attempt to make Yams for the first time...I added very little nutmeg and some cinnamon. I also added white sugar until it was sweet enuff for me...IT WAS GREAT!!! Very easy recipe to follow :)

I recommend that all men start reading the comments before actually preparing the meal... The vanilla or nutmeg would have been great! Mine turned out fantastic! It was simple to do. I substituted 1/4 cup white sugar for 6 pkts of stevia though. Used this recipe for the office Thanksgiving party. Loved it. Their comment, "Now you're ready to get married!" May have turned out too good. Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!!! God Bless.
