How to Make Fancy Potatoes
- Peel and chop 2 lbs sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
- In a large saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the chopped sweet potatoes, cover, and cook until tender (about 15-20 minutes).
- Drain the cooked sweet potatoes thoroughly.
- Mash the sweet potatoes until completely smooth and lump-free using a potato masher or electric mixer.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of milk (adjust as needed for desired consistency), 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg or cinnamon (or a combination of both!).
- Beat until light and fluffy. Then, gently fold in 2 large eggs until well combined.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Drop spoonfuls of the sweet potato mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into mounds.
- Brush the tops of the mounds with 1 tablespoon of melted butter.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned and heated through.
