One day as I was grocery shopping, I noticed some beautiful purple sweet potatoes. Combined with orange sweet potatoes, they make a colorful, rustic dish. Add a little brown sugar butter, and these yummy, hearty potatoes can actually be eaten for dessert-much like a sweet potato casserole. They are very filling, so you'll probably only need one per person.
INGREDIENTS
Sweet Potatoes
purple sweet potatoes
orange sweet potatoes

Soften (don't melt) the butter. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and stir. Place the brown sugar butter in a ramekin and refrigerate (see photo).
Wash sweet potatoes thoroughly.
Poke sweet potatoes with a fork, and place on a baking sheet.
Bake for 30 minutes. Check for tenderness, and continue to bake another 10-15 minutes if necessary.
Split potatoes down the middle, and serve with brown sugar butter. You may also cut a few into rounds to garnish (see photo).
