Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, beat oil and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the sweet potato, water and vanilla. Combine flour and cinnamon; gradually add to potato mixture until well blended. Stir in almonds.
  2. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
  3. For frosting, melt butter in a saucepan; whisk in the brown sugar, milk and egg yolks until smooth. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture reaches at least 160° and coats the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat; stir in coconut, almonds and vanilla. Spread over warm cake. Cool on a wire rack. Yield: 12-15 servings.
