This is very similar to my grandmother's sweet potato casserole. Hers uses brown sugar instead of granulated, and I think that would have been better in this recipe as well with the honey and the brandy. I might also halve the orange juice next time because I felt it was a bit over powering. Still very tasty though. Thanks Katia!
