This is how to make southern style candied sweet potatoes. This item is a must have at almost all southern tables, especially holiday dinners. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Take the stick of butter and cut it into thin slices as well and place the butter slices all over the potatoes. You want a good even amount of butter on the potatoes. Grab your sugar container and scoop out about a cup of sugar. Sprinkle the sugar all over the potatoes making sure to cover them completely. Place the pan in the oven and let it bake for about 20 minutes or until all the sugar is melted. Remove the pan and pour some of the liquid out of the pan. Sprinkle the potatoes again with enough sugar to cover them completely. Place the pan back into the oven and repeat the pouring and covering with sugar process several time until the potatoes are cooked and the top is golden brown.
