This is a really nice side dish, although it would have been nice if it were a bit more creamy. I cut the sugars to 1/2 c. each and the butter (I used oil) to 1/4. I also added 1 tsp each of cinnamon and nutmeg.

I love this dish but for health reasons I did a few things different. I boiled the potatoes first, then skinned them (the skins come off easier that way). I substitued Splenda for the white sugar and added 1/3 cup brown sugar. I also mixed in walnuts and used egg subsitute instead of the real things. For butter I used a Heart Smart brand of butter that really did taste like butter but was made largely with olive oil. The only thing I did allow for us was the miniature marshmellows but not too many. We ate this stuff like it was going out of style and we didn't feel bad afterward. :)

When I tasted this before cooking, I found the flavor to be rather thin and unremarkable. So I added: molasses, lots of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and a smidge of rum. With these additions, it was excellent.

I liked it, but it was far too sweet and became very clumpy. Don't know what I did wrong.

Taste a little like sweet potato rice pudding.. If there were such a thing... A little watery for me.

I took over the job of bringing sweet potatoes to our family gathering at Thanksgiving. Even though I had a hard act to follow, everyone loved this recipe. I roasted the potatoes instead of boiling them and it turned out great. My sister found vanilla marshmallows at Whole Food Market. Those were the perfect addition to it. I'll probably bring it again next year.

Excellent dish! I made this for dessert and, after just one spoonful, my wife insisted "you gotta make this for my mother!" One change: I used 3 tbs butter instead of 1/2 cup.

The 'Sweet Potatoe Pudding' recipe was a smash hit with my family during Thanksgiving. Excellent!

This is my recipe. I found using more potatos cuts back on the sweetness just enough.You can also make this ahead of time and just reheat.

We have this every year for Thanksgiving, it's a staple. I do add a little cinnamon and nutmeg, also great with miniature marshmallows and crushed pecans as a topping before cooking!
