Ingredients

4 pounds sweet potatoes or yams, (approximately 4 to 6 yams or about 12 sweet potatoes
depending on size) peeled and cut into 1 to 1 1/2-inch chunks
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks or 3/4 pound) butter, cut into cubes
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 to 1/2 cup cream, as needed to achieve desired consistency
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

These potatoes can be steamed to preserve more of the flavor and vitamins (or boiled if you wish), until tender. (To steam them, you can place them in a single layer on a rack placed over a large shallow pan of water with a large pot lid to cover. Replenish water in pan if it boils off before they are tender.)
Place the tender potatoes in a large bowl and mash by hand with a masher or fork. Then, using a beater, whip in butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, and enough cream to achieve your desired consistency. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
