Yesterday at the store, while we were buying pumpkins for Halloween (Need one? King Soopers on Austin Bluffs/Academy has lots.) I picked up two sweet potatoes. (Yams? I really don't know the difference.) I didn't know what I was going to make with them, but I wanted to celebrate fall and they sounded good.
So after a search on the internet, I found this recipe, which I kept very nearly the same, and will share with you below! (It's from The Neely's on the Food Network.)
Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes
Makes 1 large or two small servings
1 medium sweet potato (yam? I used the orange-colored kind.)
1 tbsp. butter
2 tbsp. cream cheese
1 unpacked tbsp. brown sugar
2 tbsp. milk
dash nutmeg
dash cinnamon
dash ginger
salt and pepper
Bake the sweet potato on a baking sheet at 375 for 1 hour. (That wasn't long enough for me, so I turned the oven up to 400 and baked an extra 10 minutes.). Scoop the flesh from the shell, and mash it with the rest of the ingredients. Place in a greased individual souffle dish. Sprinkle some brown sugar on top. Bake at 375 for 10 minutes. Then broil for about 2 minutes to really caramelize that sugar. You're done! Eat it. :)
Mmmm...Fall yumminess!
Now it's your turn. I have two questions for you:
1. What would eat with these Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes?
2. What's your favorite fall recipe? Please be my new best friend and share it in the comments.
