I thought this was very good. There was a lot of liquid in the crockpot when the potatoes were ready to be mashed and they were really soupy. I ended up leaving the lid off for a while to try and thicken them, so next time I might drain them before mashing. I only used 2 T of brown sugar and they were quite sweet. My kids picked out the cranberries but liked it otherwise.
