{Smashed Sweet Potatoes}

If your looking for a tasty sweet potato recipe, here's one from the Barefoot Contessa.

4lbs sweet potatoes (about 6 lrg)
1/2 cup orange juice ( I like to use only 1/4c)
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 Tbsp (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 tsp ground nutmeg (I only use 1/2)
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp kosher salt (it calls for 2, so add more if you like)
1 tsp ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 375*. Scrub potatoes prick them several times with fork or knife, and bake them for one hour or until very soft when pierced with a knife. Remove from oven and scoop out the insides as soon as they are cool enough to handle. Place sweet potato meat into a bowl and mix with an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and add the oj, cream, butter, brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Mix together until combined but not smooth and transfer to a baking dish. Bake the potatoes for 20-30 minutes until heated through.

YUM :)
