Description

A spicy kick to sweet potatoes. You can add more chipotles for more heat, or more brown sugar for more sweetness.

Ingredients
  • 4 large garnet yams
  • 2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup softened butter
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup heavy cream, or as needed
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. 2. Place yams onto a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven until very soft, about 1 hour. Once done, allow to cool, then peel and place into a mixing bowl. Mash the chipotle chiles into a paste, and add to the potatoes along with the butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Mash until smooth, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread the potatoes into a shallow baking dish.
  3. 3. Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, 20 to 25 minutes.
