Creamed Sweet Potatoes


This was a fantastic side dish for our thanksgiving feast. i doesn't make a huge bowl full, but we found it to be the perfect amount. i only used 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, but i could have used a little more. i thought there was too much butter however. 1/4 cup would have been plenty. this recipe is from the castle, natchez, mississippi and featured recently in an article in taste of the south.
