WHIPPED SWEET POTATOES

 

3 pounds sweet potatoes

1 tsp salt

1/2 cup Marsala Cooking Wine

6 tbs butter

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp cinnamon

Grated peel of 1 orange

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1/4 cup whipped cream (optional)

Toasted pecan pieces

 

Fill a pot halfway with water. Peel each potato and place in pot. Cut potatoes

into 1 " cubes and return to pot. Drain water so there is enough just to cover

potatoes. Stir in salt. Cover and bring to a boil. Boil 10 min. or until

potatoes are soft.

2.) In a small microwaveable bowl, heat wine in microwave 1 min. on medium power

or until very hot. Stir in butter, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and orange peel.

When potatoes are cooked, drain water from pot. Add wine mixture to pot. Whip

until smooth. Stir in cream, if desired. Garnish with pecans, then serve.
