Orange-Ginger Sweet Potatoes

• 10 large sweet potatoes (approx. 5 lbs)
• 3/4 cup butter
• 1/3 cup dark brown sugar (packed)
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup orange marmalade
• 2 tablespoons candied ginger (minced)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup dark rum (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Bake potatoes on a cookie sheet until soft (approx. 1.5 hrs).
3. When cool enough to handle, peel and chunk potatoes into a large bowl.
4. Add butter and other ingredients and toss to mix.
5. Mash potatoes thoroughly or puree in a blender. A hand mixer works well also.
6. Lower oven temperature to 350F.
7. Turn mashed potatoes into a casserole dish and dot the top with a bit of additional butter.
8. Bake 30-40 minutes until hot.
9. NOTE: This can be made ahead of time. Bring the mashed potato mixture to room temperature before dotting with butter and baking until hot.
