Even though I cooked the yams separately before I put them in the oven with the butter and sugars, they were gasping for air and swimming in a pool of syrup when I checked them. Adding the vanilla and cinnamon gave them the taste of Cinnabon's, a smell that I avoid when I am at the mall. Much too sweet for human consumption. A noble effort, but I had to rate them 2 stars.
