Candied Sweet Potatoes

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup dark brown sugar
1⁄4 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
4 sweet potatoes, boiled & peeled (I prefer to bake for richer flavored potatoes)

DIRECTIONS:

Boil sweet potatoes in skins for 15 minutes, rinse with cool water and remove skins.

Mix brown sugar and water in sauce pan, and boil together for 5-minutes, stirring frequently forming a syrup.
Add butter and stir until dissolved. Add salt and remove from heat.

Cut sweet potatoes in quarters lengthwise with cut side down in a
greased 9"x12" baking dish.

Pour syrup mixture over the sweet potatoes, cover them and bake at a 350° F oven for 60-minutes.

Baste sweet potatoes with syrup in the pan.

Turn them over every 10-minutes.

Remove from oven.
