Hooray for Christmas Eve dinner, ! What blessed guests that get to eat

of your cooking!

While the following recipe calls for nutmeg, I'd imagine you can omit it

w/o anyone shedding a tear...

This is my absolute, hands-down FAVORITE holiday recipe (my mom started

making it for Thanksgiving sometime back when I was in high school and it's

been a staple on the holiday table ever since).

Good luck in finalizing your sweet potato dish ( & even if you don't use

this one, you've GOT to make it sometime soon...your tongue will be wishing

for more taste buds just to savor the experience).

Merry Christmas!

, I know I'm late, but I just have to share this amazing sweet potato

recipe. It's so simple and sweet without any added sugar!

Take 1 1/2 pounds of sweet potatoes and roast them until they're very tender.

Let them cool just enough so that you can peel them. Meanwhile, into a small

saucepan, put just shy of 3/4 cup heavy cream, about 1/3 of a vanilla bean

(scrape seeds out into the cream) and a little orange and/or lemon zest

(optional). Bring to a summer over medium heat and cook gently for about 5

minutes. Fish out the vanilla bean and mash the potatoes with the vanilla cream

and 2 tablespoons of butter. That's it! These potatoes are SO GOOD! They were a

huge hit at Thanksgiving. I got the recipe here:

Merry Christmas!
