    I always add more brown sugar to have a sweeter taste, and it turns out great! It is whatever your taste preference is. I personally add about 3 tbsp. more of brown sugar.

    You can eat it right after it is all heated up, but I find it to taste even better, the longer it sits on the stove.....simmering.
