A potato masher, usually handy, isn't necessary for this recipe that was inspired by a classic cocktail. When roasted in their skins, the potatoes' flesh will be soft enough to mash with a spoon or fork. Prep: 20 minutes; Bake: 1 hour 10 minutes. Ingredients:
2 pounds sweet potatoes, washed and unpeeled |
1/3 cup whipping cream |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/4 cup bourbon |
1 tablespoon sweet vermouth |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1 teaspoon orange zest |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
pepper, to taste |
dried cherries, to taste |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425º. Place potatoes on a baking sheet. Bake at 425º for 1 hour or until soft. Let cool; peel. Place potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
2. Heat cream and butter in a small saucepan until butter is melted. Add cream mixture and remaining ingredients to potatoes. Mash together with a spoon or fork until liquid is absorbed.
3. Spoon into a 2-quart baking dish. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes or until warm. Serve immediately.
