Source: © Cooking Light Magazine Borrowing from the classic dessert crème brûlée, this dish has a hard candy topping, a crisp contrast to the creamy sweet potatoes. Ingredients:
6 cups hot mashed sweet potatoes (about 4 pounds) |
3/4 cup whole milk |
3 tablespoons butter, softened |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
cooking spray |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler.
2. Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Spoon potato mixture into an 11 x 7 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle 1/2 cup brown sugar evenly over top. Broil 2 minutes or until sugar melts. Let stand until melted sugar hardens (about 5 minutes).
