Brown Sugar Cinnamon Sweet Potato Fries With Butterscotch Marshmallow Dip

So Brown Sugar Sweet Potato Fries with Butterscotch Marshmallow Dip was born. Oh yes, this is so happening. But first, let’s talk about the white elephant in the room.

So apparently I am color blind, because I proceeded to peel, toss, bake and photograph my brown sugar, sweet potato fries without even thinking twice that they were white instead of orange....
