I'm looking for some great recipes to try out this holiday season using sweet potatoes/Yams.
Something more than the baked with marshmallows on top.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kirsten

I make sweet potatoes just like I would do regular mashed potatoes:
Peel fresh ones.
Cut into cubes
Boil until soft.
Throw 'em in the kitchenaid with:
Milk (or heavy cream...YUM!)
Butter
Salt
Pepper
A PINCH of brown sugar. PINCH!!!

This one is always a huge hit with guests:
BOURBON Mashed Sweet Potatoes
2 lb sweet potatoes
1/4 cup half & half or heavy cream
3 TBSP Jim Beam Bourbon Whiskey
1/2 stick butter
1 and 1/2 TBSP light brown sugar
1/2 tsp Kosher salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
Microwave or bake the sweet potatoes until soft. Cool enough to handle and remove peels. Add remaining ingredients and combine with electric mixer until smooth. serves 4 - 6. Can make ahead and microwave when ready to serve

My husband started making this Smashed Sweet Potato recipe and it is awesome. Definitely different from the normal and doesn't need to be served with a turkey.
