Brandy And Orange-Mashed Sweet Potatoes In Orange Cups

Recipe Ingredients

7 oz	198g	Sweet potatoes - (abt 3 lbs) (large)
4 oz	113g	Oranges (large)
1		Unsalted butter
1/2 cup	80g / 2.8oz	Light brown sugar
3 cups	594g / 20oz	Eggs (large)
3/4 cup	177ml	Fresh orange juice
1/2 cup	118ml	Heavy cream
1/4 cup	59ml	Brandy
1 teaspoon	5ml	Ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Salt

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake until tender, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let rest until just cool enough to handle.

Lower the oven to 350 degrees.

Make the orange cups by cutting the oranges in half and scooping out the pulp, leaving only the shell. Set aside.

While still somewhat hot, peel the potatoes and place in a large bowl. Discard the skins and tough, stringy fibers. Add the butter, and with an electric mixer, beat out the lumps. Add the sugar, eggs, orange juice, heavy cream, and brandy, and mix until smooth. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, and mix well. Re-season, to taste.

Spoon the sweet potato mixture into the orange cups, mounding and smoothing the top. Bake until puffed and slightly golden, about 20 minutes.

This recipe yields 8 servings.
