Ingredients

  • 4 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup half and half, divided

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 7x11 baking dish or use non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.

  3. Transfer boiled sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Mash well. Add dark brown sugar, butter, egg, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, and 1/2 cup half and half. Use a mixer or an emulsion blender to combine until smooth. Continue to add up to another 1/2 cup half and half until desired consistency is reached.
