Zubereitung von Red Hot Southern Sweet Potatoes

Peel and cube 3 pounds of sweet potatoes. Place them in a large saucepan and add enough water to cover.
Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 20-25 minutes.
Drain the sweet potatoes thoroughly and transfer them to a large (9x13 inch) casserole dish.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter. Stir in 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 cup Red Hot cinnamon candies, and 1/4 cup water until the candies are melted and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the butter-sugar-candy mixture evenly over the cooked sweet potatoes in the casserole dish.
Bake for 60 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are very soft and the candies are completely melted and bubbly.
(Optional) Top with 1 cup mini marshmallows and return to the oven for 10 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and toasted.
