Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
3 tbsp mild-flavored molasses (light )
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp grated orange peel
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
6 yams ( red-skinned sweet potatoes 9- to 10-oz each)

Directions:

Using electric mixer, beat first 7 ingredients in medium bowl until fluffy. (Can be prepared 1 week ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before using.)
Preheat oven to 350°F Line large baking sheet with heavy-duty foil. Using small, sharp knife, make one 1/2-inch-deep lengthwise slit in each yam, leaving 1 inch of yam uncut at each end. Place yams on baking sheet. Bake yams until tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
Cut slits across center of each yam. Press ends toward center to expose flesh. Transfer yams to platter. Spoon 1 tablespoon spiced butter into each. Pass remaining spiced butter separately.
