Chipotle Garnet Yams

Ingredients

• 4 large garnet yams
• 2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup softened butter
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup heavy cream, or as needed
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place yams onto a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven until very soft, about 1 hour. Once done, allow to cool, then peel and place into a mixing bowl. Mash the chipotle chiles into a paste, and add to the potatoes along with the butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Mash until smooth, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread the potatoes into a shallow baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, 20 to 25 minutes.
