Ok well I'm pretty disappointed in myself for not recognizing this recipe for what it is...not a dinner side dish but more of a dessert. I'm not really familiar with sweet potatoes and have only made them as fries or had them mashed. As I was making it I was thinking that it was a little strange for a regular side but when I tasted it I definatley knew...this tastes almost exactly like pumpkin pie! Although it wasn't what I had been expecting it was still good. I wouldn't make it for dinner again, but maybe for dessert.

Really good. My husband doesn't eat sweet potatoes and he liked it. My changes were to use 4 1/2 cups of potatoes, omit the white sugar entirely (sweet potatoes are already sweet) and use 1 1/2 T. of butter in the potato mixture instead of 3. I kept the topping as in the recipe. It's a flexible recipe. You could eat this for dessert.

Awesome. Easy. MMMMMmmmm. I'm no chef at all and this was sooo good. My husband said it was like something his grandma would have made. Big hit.

Family members who said they didn't like sweet potatoes were surprised it was so good. I didn't have nutmeg so I substitutes pumpkin pie spice for the nutmeg and cinnamon. It was delicious!

Amazing, awesome, wow! Everyone at Thanksgiving loved it (even my husband who doesn't like sweet potatoes said it was OK!) Will make this every year, and probably a few more times during the year for myself! :D Thanks!

Yummy and sweet, but sweet potatoes don't need this much sugar! I decreased the amount, but I felt it was still too sweet. Next time I'll only add 1/4 cup of brown sugar, if even that. Otherwise it was good!

This is SOOOO good! It's better than pumpkin pie. I used heavy cream in place of the milk and apple cider in place of the orange juice. It was to die for! My whole family loved it!

I was raised on sweet potatoes with marshmallows, my favorite. I tried this recipe for Thanksgiving, and I have to say this has taken the lead. My husband and I loved it. It's soo good, I'm confident enough to make it again for Christmas at my parents house! I did take someone's advice in an earlier review and only did 1/4 of the white sugar. Thank you for this delicious recipe.

this was absolutley marvalous!! Everyone loved this even after all the protesting that I wasn't making the traditional candied yams. The only thing I did different was that I doubled the sweet potatoes and left everything else the same. it was the perfect amount of sweetness. This will be my new thanksgiving sweet potatoes from now on!

Thhis is a wonderful recipe. I took it to a potluck at work and there were several people who did not like sweet potatoes and they loved it! I used grated fresh nutmeg which spiced it up. Thank you, Carolyn for sharing this recipe. Yum, yum.

This was amazing! Everyone thought it was a hit! The hint of orange is what I think makes it so great. I only used 1/4 of the white sugar it called for and everyone said it would have been too sweet if I had used the amount of sugar the recipe calls for. Try using 1/8 cup of sugar instead of the stated 1/2 cup and see what you think.
