I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my yam cake turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have overcooked it.

I had some trouble finding yam, so I used sweet potatoes instead. The cake still turned out great! It was just a little less dense than it would have been with yam.

This yam cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for someone who likes sweeter desserts.

I'm not usually a fan of yam cake, but this recipe changed my mind. It was so moist and flavorful, and the texture was perfect. I will definitely be making this again.
