Source of Recipe


?


• 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


1. Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and add enough water to cover. Add 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and bring to a boil.

2. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.

3. Mash the potatoes with a fork, then add 3 tablespoons of the butter, the cream, vanilla, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the pepper. Mix well, cover to keep warm, and set aside.
