Mashed Maple Bourbon Sweet Potatoes image

This sweet potato casserole tastes like it has a bit of orange in it (but it doesn't). My aunt made it at Thanksgiving and I rapidly 'borrowed' the recipe! She said she got it from foodnetwork.com.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. The sweet potatoes were flavorful, but I found the texture to be a bit mushy.

The sweet potatoes were a bit dry. I think I would have added more butter or milk to make them creamier.

These sweet potatoes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with less maple syrup.

I love the addition of bourbon to this recipe. It gives the sweet potatoes a nice depth of flavor. I also added a bit of chopped pecans for a crunchy texture.
