My Mother's candied sweet potatoes

Ingredients

• 4 medium size sweet potatoes

• Slice them thin

• 1 cup of brown cane sugar ( she used white sugar I don't use white sugar)

• 1 stick of butter

• 2 teaspoons of cinnamon

• 1/4 tsp of nutmeg

• 1 T of pure vanilla extract

• 1/8 tsp of lemon extract

• 2 T of pet milk (any milk will do)

Place a small amount of water in your pot because the potatoes will make liquid as well.

Add all ingredients and simmer until tender and you get that gooey goodness!!!

She always made her in a pot never in the oven.
