DANISH CARAMEL POTATOES
Sticky, sweet and such a treat, these potatoes, inspired by a classic sweet-and-savory Danish dish, are a must try. True to their title, the potatoes are actually tossed with a homemade caramel sauce-don't worry, it's just sugar and butter. A clever technique developed by the Betty Crocker Kitchens makes quick work of a tricky step. Where most traditional recipes call for combining the potatoes with hot caramel on your stovetop, where it's easy to burn the caramel and make a mess, this version calls for combining them in the oven. So you'll end up with creamy potatoes coated in rich caramel, with barely any fuss. We highly recommend serving these alongside pork and cabbage, as the Danes traditionally do at Christmastime.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425°F. Line 9-inch square metal pan with foil; spray with cooking spray. In 4-quart saucepan, heat 2 quarts water to boiling over high heat. Add potatoes; reduce heat and simmer 15 to 20 minutes, or until just tender when pierced with paring knife. Drain; transfer to cutting board to cool. When cool enough to handle, carefully peel potatoes by hand; discard peels.
- In large bowl, mix melted butter, sugar and salt. Add potatoes; toss to coat. Place in pan in single layer. Bake 40 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce is bubbling and caramelized. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
