Loved this recipe - definitely a keeper! The only thing I did different was I made my own corn syrup & heavy whipping cream (checked for substitutes on the internet) as I didn't want to buy these items and be stuck with what would be left. My husband said he wanted these again and he really doesn't like sweet potatoes! Thanks for sharing.
