I made these candied yams for my family and they were a huge hit! The yams were cooked perfectly and the glaze was delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

These candied yams were a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! They were so easy to make and they turned out perfectly. The yams were sweet and tender, and the glaze was just the right amount of sticky. I will definitely be making these again next year.

These candied yams were a disappointment. The yams were not cooked through and the glaze was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

These candied yams were amazing! I used brown sugar instead of white sugar and they turned out perfectly. The yams were so soft and the glaze was so flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.
