I can see adding the carrots to the sweet potatoes, and I make mine with some chicken stock and spices and whip them,but I can't see adding the br. sugar - to me sweet potatoes have enough flavor & sweetness on their own plus the carrots will add some some sweetness and who needs the extra calories - 2/7/09

Made this last night & we loved it! I suggest starting the carrots first though, as I used a mixer and had pcs of carrot- which was fine- if you care. Also, add more pie spice. This made WAY MORE than 8 servings! There was 4 of us last night, & we could eat this at least twice more to finish it. - 5/12/09
