Bourbon Sweet Potatoes

I always make sweet potatoes with marshmallows every year and everybody likes them a lot. I have never actually made them this way, but I just found this recipe and this is the sweet potato dish that will grace my table this year. These just sound like they will be unbearably good. I think this could be eaten as a dessert. Can’t wait to taste them myself.
