Soups & Sides: Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Recently I've renewed my love of the Sweet Potato. I really wanted to find something I could top with my new found amazing whipped cream. The salt really sets off the flavors of the spices. So delicious! Here is the recipe:

Ingredients:
3 small sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped up
A little water and a splash of your choice of milk
A dash of cloves, cinnamon, and ginger
1 tablespoon or so of butter or margarine
Approx 1 teaspoon of honey
A pinch of kosher salt
Whipped topping

Instructions:
Either boil in a pot or put in a large bowl and microwave with water and milk for 8 minutes or until soft. Mash to smithereens. Add butter. You can spice here, or if you want a smoother texture place in food processor or blender and blend. (I did this.) Add honey and spices to taste. Enjoy!
