BRANDY YAMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Boil the four medium yams with skins until tender. Then drain and peel the yams. Either slice or cut them into cubes and place in a buttered casserole dish.
• Boil the brown sugar, water, butter and raisins. Once the sugar is fully melted and the mixture has a good boil add the brandy and remove from heat. Pour mixture over the yams.
• Then add a layer of the small marshmallows on top of the yams (may add sliced almonds to your liking).
• Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes uncovered. Be sure to baste occasionally.

BRANDY CANDIED BUTTERY YAMS

Steps:

• Wash yams, boil in a pot for a few minutes. Let them cool and then slide the skins off of them. Cut the yams into silver dollar like disks, a little over 1/8 inch thick. Heat and stir the sugar, zest, juice, butter, Brandy, nutmeg and cinnamon in sauce pan, do not let it get thick. Rub a little butter on the bottom and inside walls of a rectangular pyrex baking dish. Place a layer of the yams in the pyrex dish covering the bottom. Pour a small amount of the heated brandy mixture over this layer and then add a few shavings of the butter over that. Repeat this process of a layer of yams, sauce and butter shavings until the dish is full. Place this in a 375°F preheated oven for about 30 minutes. Be very careful when removing the dish from the oven not to spill any of the extremely hot liquid onto yourself.
