Bourbon Mashed Sweet Potatoes

INGREDIENTS
o 2 pounds sweet potatoes
o 1/2 cup heavy cream
o 1/4 cup bourbon whiskey
o 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
o 2 tablespoons molasses
o 1/8 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the potatoes on a foil lined baking sheet. Bake until tender and starting to ooze sugary syrup, about 1 hour and 15 minutes, depending on their size. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle.
• Cut a slit down each potato and scoop the flesh into a large bowl. Discard the skins. Add the cream, bourbon, brown sugar, molasses, and salt and beat on high speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Cover to keep warm, or gently reheat before serving.

Sounds good! I do a very similar recipe but I add a crust of butter, brown sugar and pecans on top and throw it back in the oven till it's nice and crunchy. Sprinkle some mini marshmallows on top while it's still hot. Mmmmmm
