MARYLOU'S HOLIDAY SWEET POTATOES - NO MARSHMALLOWS
Thought it was about time I shared this luscious sweet potato dish. It makes the house smell wonderful. These do take a bit of time, but it's worth it! We've been having these for about 40 years. Hope you enjoy them as much as we do. Leftovers, if you have any, may be frozen for later enjoyment.
