I have always hated to eat yams at thanksgiving, probably mostly because of my dislike for marshmallows. A few years ago my sister in law Whitney Campbell make this recipe and I have been hooked ever since!! It will be a tradition on thanksgiving in my family forever more!! Give it a try, i guarantee you will fall in love!

There is no better recipe. I didn't make any this year, but we were already getting a huge spread for just the 5 of us...maybe next year!
