Question for those who make sweet potatoes/candied yams

How do you make them? I use canned yams, drained, rinsed, cut into cubes, mix with drained pineapple and a little brown sugar, and crowned, naturally, with miniature marshmallows. Bake.

Yesterday I conveyed this recipe to a waitress who has become my pal. Her English isn't very good and I'm not sure I got through. I need some measurements -- how many yams, how much pineapple, how long in oven, at what temperature. So I'm asking for your help.

Thanks!
