From what I hear from my family this was absolutely wonderful. I personally don't like sweet potatoes, but these were gone quickly at Christmas.

I thought this recipe was really good. I followed it exaclty as instructed. I did not taste the brandy at all, and I was a bit worried about that. My wife LOVED them. She said its a keeper. I sort of felt they could have had a bit more flavor, but I can't quite pinpoint what it needed.

This was so good!! I tried it last year and it was a big hit. I experimented a little with the recipe and turned it into a pie :) I have requests from people wanting me to make the pie for their families to enjoy this holiday season. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

I love sweet potatoes, but the only thing you could taste was brandy. I'll stick with my grandma's recipe!

This has a nice flavor, but you could cut back on the butter and brandy. I do think that it holds the brandy flavor and this might not suit some people.

I used ginger brandy for this recipe, its all i had on hand. They came out pretty good but a bit strong. I think if I try these again I will use less brandy.

It's delicious, I really enjoy this twist. The sauce is pretty much just a caramel - but hey, who doesn't love caramel!?

Utterly delicious. Do not make this too far ahead, it needs to be ready at exactly the same time as dinner or it will be mushy. If you're not sure what time dinner will be, cut the potatoes to twice bite-size so they don't turn completely to mush by the time you eat them.

I was worried cause so many people thought this recipe had too much booze taste. I am not a big drinker, but I didnt taste the brandy at all. Purely delicious potatoes! Easy too! Beat the pants off whipped sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving. I cooked themin advance and put them in a casserole to reheat. For traditions sake, I melted a few miniature marmallows on top. Everybody raved!

This was not a hit with my family and I. There was way too much brandy and the dish was very unattractive. Maybe roasting the potatoes and using less brandy would help. I'm not sure that I would bother trying to make this better though.

Very good, I used Splenda instead of Brown Sugar and it was plenty sweet.

Too much brandy flavor for my tastes, but my Mom loved it. I will definitely cook the brandy with the sauce next time.

This recipe definitely goes in the family book! Ingredients are easy to purchase, prep & cook time is reasonable, passes the "turrible veggie" taste test so what more can you ask for? Seriously, the flavor is excellent.
