Brown Sugar Roasted Sweet Potatoes

These Brown Sugar Roasted Sweet Potatoes are roasted with brown sugar, cinnamon, butter, and a little cayenne for a kick.  They are the perfect side dish recipe.  Easy to throw together and delicious!  These would be great served with this turkey and cheesy crock pot mashed potatoes.

• 4 TBSP unsalted butter melted
• 2 TBSP light brown sugar packed
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
