Candied Sweet Potatoes

  • 2 cans (16oz) Sweet Potatoes in Heavy Syrup
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar (firmly packed)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 tsp orange rind
  • 1/4 tsp grated cinnamon

Drain potatoes and reserve at least 1/4 cup of the syrup.

In deep skillet – mix brown sugar, butter, rind, cinnamon, and syrup.  Heat to boil.  Reduce heat and simmer until thickened (shouldn’t take more than a minute).   Dump in the sweet potatoes and cook until heated through, stirring and tossing constantly to get the potatoes coated in the glaze.
