This was a great recipe! I used brown sugar instead of honey and it turned out perfect. The sweet potatoes were creamy and flavorful, and the walnuts added a nice crunch.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, it was a great recipe and I would definitely make it again.

I'm allergic to walnuts, so I substituted pecans in this recipe. It turned out great! The pecans added a nice crunch and nutty flavor.

This was a good recipe, but it took a lot longer to make than I expected. I think it would be better suited for a special occasion than a weeknight meal.

I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I wouldn't make it again.

This recipe is way too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less honey or maple syrup, or even omitting it altogether.

This recipe is missing some important steps. It doesn't say how long to cook the sweet potatoes or how to make the bourbon glaze. I had to guess at both, and it didn't turn out very well.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sweet potato mash turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't come out right. Maybe I didn't cook the sweet potatoes long enough?

This was a great make-ahead dish for my holiday party. I made it the day before and it reheated perfectly. The flavors really had a chance to meld together, and it was even better the second day.
