I took this to a church potluck today, and, not only was it devoured, several women asked for the recipe! It was simple to make and a real crowd pleaser, except with some of the children who simply have forgotten how much they like sweet potatoes. Thanks for the recipe! I'll serve it at Thanksgiving, with marshmallows on top of some for the children who must have them.
