TENNESSEE WHISKEY SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE
Sweet potato casserole flavored with Tennessee whiskey, brown sugar, and topped with candied pecans. A rich and comforting take on a classic holiday dish that has been in my family for years. We've had it at Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember. For best results make sure potatoes are drained of as much water as possible.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
- On a foil-covered baking sheet, bake the sweet potatoes until soft, about 1 hour. Remove and let cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. When cool enough to handle, peel the potatoes, place the flesh in a large mixing bowl, add the butter and mash until smooth. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the sugar, milk, cornmeal, salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the vanilla and beat until smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Arrange the pecan halves on top of the pudding and top with the brown sugar. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla by small droplets over the brown sugar. Bake until the top is browned, about 45 minutes.
SWEET POTATO SEMIFREDDO
Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Prick the potato all over with the tip of a knife or a fork, place it on a double layer of aluminum foil, and bake it 1 hour 45 minutes. Yes, that's a long time, but you want the potato to really caramelize. Juices will bubble from the pricks and cook to a dark caramel, and the flesh will be creamy and sweet.
- Put the potato on a rack until it's cool enough to handle, then peel it and place the flesh in a small bowl. Scrape any caramelized flesh off the skin into the bowl, spoon in the Grand Marnier, and beat the potato with a fork until it's smooth.
- Beat the heavy cream until it holds soft peaks, then cover it and refrigerate.
- Put the sugar in a small deep saucepan (with a pouring spout, if you have one). Drizzle the syrup over it, then pour in 1/3 cup cold water. Use your finger to make an X in the sugar (this just makes sure it all gets moistened), then bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Once the syrup is boiling, increase the heat to medium, stick a candy thermometer in the pan, and start beating the egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed.
- By the time the whites have reached the soft-peak stage, the syrup should be at 240 degrees. Increase the speed to medium-high and carefully pour the syrup into the whites. Be careful not to burn yourself when you do this. Now increase the speed to high and continue beating until the bowl is cool, another 4 to 5 minutes. You'll have a very thick meringue.
- Transfer the meringue to a larger bowl and fold in the sweet potato thoroughly. Give the cream a whisk or two, then fold it in. Spoon the mixture into a 3-quart aluminum souffle dish or into individual molds. Wrap first with plastic, then with aluminum foil, and freeze for at least 3 hours.
- Serve with a pitcher of the chocolate sauce.
- Bring the cream and corn syrup to a boil in a saucepan. Turn off the heat. Add the chocolate and shake the pan so all the chocolate is covered with cream. Let it sit for a few minutes to melt the chocolate, then stir until it's smooth. Add the bourbon and a pinch of salt. The sauce should be warm, so reheat it over simmering water if it cools down before dessert or if you've refrigerated it in the ubiquitous covered container.
WHISKEY-GLAZED SWEET POTATOES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and cook the potatoes whole, do not pierce. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Lightly squeeze the potatoes - if they are soft, they are done. Let cool.
- In a small saute pan over high heat, add the pecans and lightly toast. Add 4 tablespoons of butter, reduce the heat to medium, add the agave and spices, and allow to simmer for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the whiskey and continue to simmer for 5 minutes more.
- Peel the potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Butter the bottom and sides of an 8 by 8-inch baking dish. Arrange the sweet potatoes, alternating with the apples. Pour the whiskey-pecan mixture over the top and place in the oven.
- Bake for 30 minutes, basting the top with the whiskey sauce once at 15 minutes.
- Remove and serve immediately.
MAMA LANE'S SWEET POTATO PUDDING

Tips:
- Choose the Right Sweet Potatoes: Select firm, unblemished sweet potatoes with smooth skin. Look for sweet potatoes that are about the same size to ensure even cooking.
- Poke Holes in the Sweet Potatoes: Before baking, poke holes in the sweet potatoes with a fork or a knife. This helps the steam to escape, preventing the potatoes from bursting.
- Bake the Sweet Potatoes Until Tender: Bake the sweet potatoes at 400°F (200°C) for about an hour or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Use Freshly Grated Nutmeg: Freshly grated nutmeg has a more intense flavor than pre-ground nutmeg. If you don't have a nutmeg grater, you can use a microplane zester.
- Make the Tennessee Whiskey Sauce Ahead of Time: The Tennessee whiskey sauce can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat the sauce over low heat until warmed through.
- Serve the Sweet Potato Pudding Warm: The sweet potato pudding is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
