Candied Carrots

This is a sure fire way I can get my kids to eat carrots - they love it!  It's always a hit with the grown-ups as well.

1/2 lb. carrots*
2 Tbl. butter
3 Tbl. brown sugar

*I use baby carrots to make things easier for me, but you can chop or slice regular carrots to the equivalent size.)

Steam or boil the carrots until just cooked through (you don't want your carrots to be mushy).  Drain  and set aside.  In a small sauce pan melt the butter on medium, and mix in the sugar.  Add the cooked carrots and mix well.  Once the carrots seem well coated, serve and enjoy.
