Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Place yams on a baking sheet and bake until very soft. (1 hour)

03

Step

Let yams cool, then peel and place in a mixing bowl. (20 minutes)

04

Step

Mash chipotle chiles into a paste and add to yams along with butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Mash until smooth, then season with salt and pepper. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Spread yams into a shallow baking dish. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Bake until heated through. (20-25 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use browned butter instead of softened butter.
If you prefer a smoother texture, use an immersion blender to puree the yams.
Garnish with chopped cilantro or a dollop of sour cream for added freshness.

    So easy to make, and much more exciting than plain sweet potatoes.

    I found the baking time to be a little long for my oven; next time, I'll check them sooner.
