I'm not a big fan of marshmallows, but these sweet potatoes were still really good! The glaze was flavorful and the sweet potatoes were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making these again, but I will leave off the marshmallows next time.

These sweet potatoes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The glaze was well-balanced and the marshmallows were a nice touch. I would definitely make these again, but I would use less sugar in the glaze.

These glazed sweet potatoes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them without the marshmallows.
