Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat the yams or sweet potatoes with oil. Bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until soft when pierced. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the butter, chopped green onion, Cranberry Orange Chop, brown sugar, and pepper. Using an electric mixer or a spoon, mix until well blended.
