This sweet potato recipe was well received at Thanksgiving and was requested as one of the sides for Christmas dinner. And no one guessed that it was a low fat dish. Sweet potatoes are essentially a good carb but surprisingly or not so much they can be paired with butter and sugar and still be healthy. And delicious. Oh so delicious.

Spoon into a 9 x 9 or 11 x 7-inch baking dish. Preheat the broiler. Sprinkle 1/2 cup brown sugar evenly over top. Broil 2 minutes or until sugar melts, careful not to burn. Let it stand until the melted sugar hardens (about 5 minutes).
