These are super easy and so delicious! They seem very fancy when serving them with dinner. Like eating candy! My kids gobbled them up very quickly. I’m curious to try them with fresh sweet potatoes to make a candied potato (instead of the canned version). Definitely will make these again.

Absolutely love these carrots! I boil mine until tender before cooking them in the sauce, because my family does not like the carrots to be super crunchy, and prefer them soft. The recipe as a whole is quick and easy and it goes great with so many things! Definitely a keeper and will be a regular in my house.

These carrots were delicious and easy to make! I agree with the review from above, I reduced the heat as well because the carrots were not getting tender and I was afraid the sugar would burn. It did take me longer to cook them but they were good – not too sweet!

These carrots are awesome! However, I did reduce the cooking temp. after almost ruining the first batch. I started out cooking them like the recipe says, but after about 15 or so min., the sugar started to burn and the carrots were not tender. I reduced the heat to low, and cooked them until they were tender. It took longer, but they didn’t burn, and they finished with the rest of supper.
