1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. dark corn syrup
2 Tbsp. water
1/4 c. brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 tsp salt
6 medium sweet potatoes, cooked and peeled
Melt butter; stir in corn syrup, water, brown sugar, and salt. Cut potatoes in halves lengthwise (I cut mine in large sticks). Dip in corn syrup mixture, coating all sides. Place in 13x9x2 pan. Pour remaining syrup over top. Bake in slow oven (325°) until tender and glazed, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Baste occasionally.
Serves 6.
