Here is another delicious dish from yours truly. It is very easy to make and will be talked about at the table.

Ingredients:
1-pound sweet potato, with deep red flesh such as Beauregard variety
¾ cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 Tbs sugar
2 eggs, slightly beaten
6 tsp butter, melted
Directions:
1) Preheat oven 350° F
2) Peel the sweet potato and cut it into ½” slices. Place in a medium bowl with 1 tbs olive oil and 2 tbs water and mix well.
3) Place the sweet potato in a nonstick baking pan and cover with aluminum foil. Roast in the oven for 20 -30 minutes until soft. Let cool.
4) Preheat oven to 300° F
5) Add the cold sweet potato with heavy cream in a food processor and puree until the sweet potato becomes very smooth. Spoon out the mashed sweet potato into a medium mixing bowl. Then add heavy cream, vanilla, sugar, eggs, and butter to the sweet potato puree. Mix and blend until smooth.
6) Brush a 12-cup non-stick muffin pan with melted butter. Sprinkle the bottom of 8 cups with breadcrumbs. Fill the same7- 8 cups with sweet potato filling.
7) Bake the soufflé at 300° F for approximately 30 to 35 minutes. Insert a knife into the side of each baked sweet potato.
8) Turn the muffin pan upside down onto a baking sheet and let each individual soufflé fall out. You will have 7-8 Sweet Potato souffle. Then serve.
