I didn't make these potatoes, but I did have the pleasure of having them served to me by SusieQusie who we are visiting in Dallas. This is an amazing recipe! I've never liked sweet potatoes, SQ had to insist they would be a part of our "Welcome to Dallas" dinner & I adored them! I can't wait to get back to Iceland & make them for our family & friends. This is recipe perfection & I would give more stars if I could. Thx for sharing this great recipe w/us.
