Henna's Southern Comfort Sweet Potatoes

I got this receipe originally from a Southren Comfort cook book I found at the liquor store. At the time I was very into lowering the amount of white sugar I was using so I made many changes that turned out very well. This is now the traditional sweet potatoes served by my family.
