Bourbon sweet potatoes



Great to serve for an all-adult holiday dinner, or to use up leftover sweet potatoes.  The bourbon will NOT cook off, so please serve these responsibly!

Bourbon Sweet Potatoes

Pre-cooked sweet potatoes
Cream (any variety)
Butter
Bourbon
Brown sugar
Molasses
Salt
Nutmeg

Prepare sweet potatoes by pre-cooking in foil until soft.  Slip off the skins and place in a bowl.

For each sweet potato in the bowl, add a dollop of cream, a pat of butter, a T of bourbon, sugar, and molasses, a dash of salt and a sprinkling of nutmeg.  Mix together and serve hot.
