Shopping List:
2.5 lbs Sweet Potatoes
1 stick of butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 shot of bourbon (optional) Spiced rum works nicely too
1 orange (juice and zest)
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp butter extract
1/4 tsp maple extract
1 tsp ginger paste
1-2 tsp cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
1 pinch of salt

Directions: Peel and cut sweet potatoes into bite sized pieces. Clean and then dry thoroughly. Add to a 9x11 casserole dish. In a saucepot, make your candied mixture and pour over sweet potatoes. Toss them to ensure they are coated evenly. Cover with foil and place in a 400 degree oven. Total cook time will depend on size of potatoes but should be between 45-60 minutes. Remove foil cover during the last 15-20 minutes. Stir potatoes every 15 minutes to ensure they are cooking evenly. They are done when they are fork tender and fully caramelized.
