candied yams
4 large sweet potatoes
3 cups water
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
4 tablespoons butter
1 (3 to 4-inch) cinnamon stick
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/3 cup bourbon (recommended: No. 7 Jack Daniels)
1 long strip orange peel or (triple sec)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Wash and dry sweet potatoes and bake for 1 hour or until potatoes are
soft to the touch. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly then
remove skin from potatoes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
While the potatoes are baking, combine remaining ingredients in a
saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 to 45
minutes until sauce is slightly thickened. Slice the potatoes 1/2-inch
thick into a medium casserole dish. Pour syrup over them and return to
the oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes
these ARE SO GOOD!!!

Great question. I'd love to have a few extra recipes too. Just plain roasted sweet potatoes each and every Thanksgiving just do not provide enough excitement.
SWEET POTATO PUREE WITH BLUE CHEESE (OR GORGONZOLA) SAUCE
Roast your sweet potatoes at 400 degrees for 1 hour or until done. Peel, mash, and add butter and milk, as you would to ordinary potatoes.
To make a sauce for the potatoes, heat equal parts of blue cheese (or Stilton) and chicken broth until the cheese has melted and both have combined.
A variation of the sauce is to saute a celery stalk and a small chopped onion in 2 Tbsp. butter. When done, put in a blender and puree with 1 cup milk, 1 cup ricotta cheese, and 8 oz. gorgonzola. (Gorgonzola is usually older and sharper than young blue cheese and Stilton, so the ricotta will make its extreme saltiness pleasantly milder.)
Serve the hot mashed sweet potatoes with a well in the middle, as you would serve regular mashed potatoes, and pour the cheese sauce in the well.
