I found this online and am posting it here so I can try it soon. Sounds delicious, but I might cut the glaze in half as it seems like it could be kind of overpowering.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F Grease and flour a standard tube pan.
- Cook sweet potato in boiling water until tender; or, for richer flavor, bake in the oven. Cool, peel and mash until you have 1 cup puree.
- Cream butter together with sugars in a large mixing bowl. Mix in sweet potato puree. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Sift flour, baking powder and salt together and add alternately with milk. Pour into pan and bake 60 to 70 minutes.
- While cake is baking, make Irish Whiskey Glaze:.
- Combine whiskey, sugar and butter in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil to dissolve sugar.
- When cake tests done remove to a rack. Pour a portion of glaze over hot cake in pan. Let soak in a little before adding all the glaze. Cool completely in pan and gently remove to a plate.
